 PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL, INDUSTRY AND MARKET DATA

Certain Conventions

All references in this Red Herring Prospectus to India are to the Republic of India and all references to the
U.S., U.S.A or United States are to the United States of America.

Unless stated otherwise, all references to page numbers in this Red Herring Prospectus are to the page numbers
of this Red Herring Prospectus.

Financial Data

Unless stated otherwise, the financial information in this Red Herring Prospectus is derived from our Restated
Financial Statements prepared in accordance with Ind AS, Indian GAAP and the Companies Act/ Companies Act,
1956, as applicable, restated in accordance with the SEBI ICDR Regulations.

Our Companys Financial Year commences on April 1 and ends on March 31 of the following year. Accordingly,
all references to a particular financial year, unless stated otherwise, are to the 12 month period ended on March
31 of that year. Unless the context otherwise requires, all references to a year in this Red Herring Prospectus are
to a calendar year and references to a financial year are to March 31 of that calendar year.

Certain figures contained in this Red Herring Prospectus, including financial information, have been subject to
rounding adjustments. All decimals have been rounded off to two or one decimal places. In certain instances, (i)
the sum or percentage change of such numbers may not conform exactly to the total figure given; and (ii) the sum
of the numbers in a column or row in certain tables may not conform exactly to the total figure given for that
column or row.

There are significant differences between Indian GAAP, Ind AS, U.S. GAAP and IFRS. Our Company does not
provide reconciliation of its financial information to Ind AS, IFRS or U.S. GAAP. Our Company has not attempted
to explain those differences or quantify their impact on the financial data included in this Red Herring Prospectus
and it is urged that you consult your own advisors regarding such differences and their impact on our financial
data. Accordingly, the degree to which the financial information included in this Red Herring Prospectus will
provide meaningful information is entirely dependent on the readers level of familiarity with Indian accounting
policies and practices, the Companies Act, the Indian GAAP, Ind AS and the SEBI ICDR Regulations. Any
reliance by persons not familiar with Indian accounting policies and practices on the financial disclosures
presented in this Red Herring Prospectus should accordingly be limited. Our annual financial statements for
periods subsequent to April 1, 2016, are prepared and presented in accordance with Ind AS. Given that Ind AS
differs in many respects from Indian GAAP, our financial statements prepared and presented in accordance with
Ind AS may not be comparable to our historical financial statements prepared under the Indian GAAP.

On February 16, 2015, the Ministry of Corporate Affairs issued the Ind-AS Rules for the purpose of enacting
changes to Indian GAAP that are intended to align Indian GAAP further with IFRS. The Ind-AS Rules provide
that the financial statements of the companies to which they apply shall be prepared in accordance with the Indian
Accounting Standards converged with IFRS, although any company may voluntarily implement Ind AS for the
accounting period beginning from April 1, 2015. With effect from April 1, 2016, we are required to prepare our
financial statements in accordance with the Ind AS. Pursuant to SEBI Circular number
SEBI/HO/CFD/DIL/CIR/P/2016/47 dated March 31, 2016, our restated financial information for the financial
years 2017, 2016 and 2015 included in this Red Herring Prospectus is prepared under the Ind AS while our restated
financial information for the financial years 2014 and 2013 included in this Red Herring Prospectus is prepared
under the Indian GAAP.

We have not made any attempt to quantify or identify the impact of the differences between Indian GAAP and
Ind AS applied to our financial statements and it is urged that you consult your own advisors regarding the impact
of difference, if any, on financial data included in this Red Herring Prospectus.

For details in connection with risks involving differences between Indian GAAP and IFRS see Risk Factors
Significant differences exist between Ind AS and Indian GAAP on one hand and other accounting principles, such
as US GAAP and IFRS on the other, which may be material to investors assessments of our financial condition.
on page 37 and for risks in relation to Ind AS, see Risk Factors Public companies in India, including us, are
required to compute Income Tax under the Income Computation and Disclosure Standards (the ICDS). The

13
transition to ICDS in India is very recent and we may be negatively affected by such transition. on page 37 and
Significant Differences between Indian GAAP and Ind AS on page 326.

Unless the context otherwise indicates, any percentage amounts, as set forth in Risk Factors, Our Business,
Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditional and Results of Operations on pages 18, 124
and 334, respectively, and elsewhere in this Red Herring Prospectus have been calculated on the basis of our
Restated Financial Statements prepared in accordance with Companies Act, 2013, Ind AS Rules and Indian
GAAP, as applicable and restated in accordance with the SEBI ICDR Regulations.

 FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Red Herring Prospectus contains certain forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements
generally can be identified by words or phrases such as aim, anticipate, believe, expect, estimate,
intend, objective, plan, project, will, will continue, will pursue or other words or phrases of similar
import. Similarly, statements that describe our strategies, objectives, plans, prospects or goals are also forward-
looking statements. All forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions about us
that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by the relevant forward-looking
statement.

Actual results may differ materially from those suggested by the forward-looking statements due to risks or
uncertainties associated with the expectations with respect to, but not limited to, regulatory changes pertaining to
the industries in India in which our Company operates and our ability to respond to them, our ability to successfully
implement our strategy, our growth and expansion, technological changes, our exposure to market risks, general
economic and political conditions in India which have an impact on its business activities or investments, the
monetary and fiscal policies of India, inflation, deflation, unanticipated turbulence in interest rates, foreign
exchange rates, equity prices or other rates or prices, the performance of the financial markets in India and
globally, changes in domestic laws, regulations and taxes and changes in competition in the industries in which
we operate. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our Companys expectations
include, but are not limited to, the following:
Dependence of commercial shipbuilding on the growth of global economy and global economic conditions;
Dependence on limited number of customers for a significant portion of our revenue and loss of our major
customers;
Commissioning of our new proposed Dry Dock or the new ISRF in a timely manner or without cost overruns;
Non accuracy of the cost estimates by the Dry Dock Project Consultant and the ISRF Project Consultant;
of losses under our fixed price contracts as a result of cost overruns, delays in delivery or failures to meet
contract specifications;
Our future growth and expansion being limited by our production capacities and the location at which we
operate;
The loss of, or shutdown of, our operations at our shipyard in Kochi from which our entire business operations
are based;
Non yielding of benefits, expected by us, from our strategic cooperation agreements;
Inability to successfully execute our growth strategies;
Inability to attract or retain key personnel; and
Any adverse change in laws, rules and regulations and legal uncertainties.
For further discussion of factors that could cause the actual results to differ from the expectations, see Risk
Factors, Our Business and Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations on pages 18, 124 and 334, respectively. By their nature, certain market risk disclosures are only
estimates and could be materially different from what actually occurs in the future. As a result, actual gains or
losses could materially differ from those that have been estimated.

We cannot assure the Bidders that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements will prove to be
correct. Given these uncertainties, Bidders are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking
statements and not to regard such statements as a guarantee of future performance.

Forward-looking statements reflect the current views of our Company as on the date of this Red Herring
Prospectus and are not a guarantee of future performance. These statements are based on the managements beliefs
and assumptions, which in turn are based on currently available information. Although, we believe the
assumptions upon which these forward-looking statements are based are reasonable, any of these assumptions
could prove to be inaccurate, and the forward-looking statements based on these assumptions could be incorrect.
Neither our Company, our Directors, the BRLMs nor any of their respective affiliates have any obligation to
update or otherwise revise any statements reflecting circumstances arising after the date hereof or to reflect the
occurrence of underlying events, even if the underlying assumptions do not come to fruition. In accordance with

16
SEBI requirements, our Company and BRLMs will ensure that the Bidders in India are informed of material
developments until the time of the grant of listing and trading permission by the Stock Exchanges.

In accordance with SEBI requirements, our Company and the Selling Shareholder shall severally ensure that
investors in India are informed of material developments from the date of this Red Herring Prospectus in relation
to the statements and undertakings made by them in this Red Herring Prospectus until the time of the grant of
listing and trading permission by the Stock Exchanges for this Issue. Further, in accordance with Regulation 51A
of the SEBI ICDR Regulations, our Company may be required to undertake an annual updation of the disclosures
made in this Red Herring Prospectus and make it publicly available in the manner specified by SEBI.

INTERNAL RISK FACTORS

Risk relating to Our Business and Our Industry

1. Worldwide demand and pricing in the commercial shipbuilding industry are highly dependent upon global
economic conditions. If the global economy fails to grow at an adequate pace, it may adversely impact the
commercial shipbuilding industry which may negatively affect our business, financial condition and
growth prospects.

The commercial shipbuilding industry is highly cyclical in nature and is also sensitive to the cyclical nature of the
industries it serves such as the oil, natural gas, shipping, transportation and other trade-related industries.
According to the CRISIL Report, a fall in the price of crude oil contributed to a recession in the shipbuilding
industry as international oil companies reduced capital expenditure, and delayed or cancelled orders for drill ships
and offshore production facilities.

The demand and pricing of our vessels are highly sensitive to global and regional economic conditions particularly
in India, China, South Korea, the Middle East, Western Europe and the USA, as well as seasonal and regional
changes in demand and changes in the global fleet size. CRISIL has noted that there has been a sharp decline in
the global shipbuilding order book after 2011. Particularly in relation to our commercial shipbuilding business,
continued economic growth in the world economy that exceeds growth in the global fleet size will be necessary
to sustain a continued demand for new ships.

However, there can be no assurance that such economic growth will continue in the future or sustain or improve
the performance of the shipbuilding and ship-repair industry. Any future deterioration in global economic
conditions as well as downward trends in trade-related industries, and our failure to accurately predict these cycles
could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

2. Loss of any of our major customers or a reduction in their orders, or failure to succeed in tendering for
shipbuilding or ship repair projects for the Indian Navy in the future, despite our previous track record
will have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations and growth
prospects as we are dependent on a few of our major customers.

18
Our top two customers accounted for 82.43%, 89.92% and 84.57% of our revenue from operations in Fiscals
2015, 2016 and 2017, respectively. Further, we are currently building Indias first Indigenous Aircraft Carrier
(IAC) for the Indian Navy and this forms a significant part of our current order book. In the past we have
undertaken complex and sophisticated repairs to ships of the Indian Navy, Indian Coast Guard and merchant navy.
Although part of our business strategy includes focusing on the expected growth in the requirements of the Indian
Navy for new ships, we do not have any contractual arrangements with the Indian Navy or GoI to construct or
repair naval ships.

Although we have more than 10 years of experience working with these customers, and have current orders from
these customers, we cannot assure you that these customers will continue to engage us or that we will continue to
sustain the general level of revenues that we have secured from them in the past. For example, recently a new
order for a series of FPVs was placed by the Indian Coast Guard with a private shipyard for the first time. Our
customer, in the ship building and ship repair industry, follow the competitive bidding process and due to such
procurement policy and competition we may suffer loss of new business from existing clients. If any of our major
customers ceases to have business dealings with us or materially reduces the level or frequency of their orders for
new vessels from us and we are unable to secure new orders from other sources to replace such a loss or reduction,
our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects will be adversely affected.

3. We cannot assure you that our proposed Dry Dock or International Ship Repair Facility will become
operational as scheduled, or at all, or operate as efficiently as planned. We have not, as on date of this
Red Herring Prospectus, obtained certain licenses or approvals for our proposed ISRF project for which
funds are being raised through the Issue. Our Company shall transfer the Net Proceeds assigned for the
proposed ISRF project to a separate bank account and we shall incur all expenditure on the ISRF project
through internal accruals till the time such pending approvals are received. Further, if we are unable to
commission our new proposed Dry Dock or the ISRF in a timely manner or without cost overruns, our
business, results of operations and financial condition may be adversely affected.

As on the date of this Red Herring Prospectus, we have not obtained certain licenses or approvals from various
authorities for our proposed ISRF project for which funds are being raised through the Issue. For further details
see Government and Other Approvals on page 382.

In relation to our proposed Dry Dock, we have obtained environmental clearance dated November 9, 2016 from
the Ministry of Environment, Forests and Climate Change (MoEFCC). However, the environmental clearance
is subject to certain conditions including the outcome of an ongoing litigation in the Supreme Court of India. For
more details, see Risk Factors -The environmental clearance for our proposed Dry Dock and ISRF project is
subject to the final order in the matter of Goa Foundation v. Union of India and amongst others, the prior
clearance of the Standing Committee of the National Board for Wildlife. on page 22. For more details, see
Governmental and Other Approvals on page 382.

We entered into an agreement dated December 24, 2012 for development and operation of ISRF with Cochin Port
Trust (CoPT) under which we are in the process of setting up the ISRF. The ISRF will be established on 16.90
hectares of land and about 15.60 hectare of water body. Out of this, we have taken on lease approximately 8.12
hectares of land and 15 hectares of water body from Cochin Port Trust, including their existing ship-repair facility,
for a period of 30 years pursuant to the lease deed dated April 12, 2013. Our Company will have to comply with
the conditions set out in the lease deed before it can obtain the lease for the remaining part of the land. However,
there can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain the lease for the residual land and water body from CoPT.

In relation to ISRF project, we have obtained environmental clearance dated June 22, 2017 from MoEFCC.
However, the environmental clearance is subject to certain conditions including obtaining prior clearance of the
wildlife from the Standing Committee of the National Board for Wildlife and the outcome of an on-going litigation
in the Supreme Court of India. For more details, see Risk Factors - The environmental clearance for our
proposed Dry Dock and ISRF project is subject to the final order in the matter of Goa Foundation v. Union of
India and amongst others, the prior clearance of the Standing Committee of the National Board for Wildlife. on
page 22. Further, we have received stage-I forest clearance from MoEFCC with a validity of five years and which
is subject to certain conditions including total deemed forest area to be utilized would not exceed 0.01866 hectares.
We cannot assure you that we will be able to meet all the conditions or would be able to obtain stage-2 approval
under the Forest (Conservation) Act, 1980.

Pursuant to the SEBI Exemption Letter, SEBI has permitted us to file this Red Herring Prospectus with Registrar
of Companies, pending the receipt of the approvals and has allowed us to raise funds through the Issue towards

19
the proposed ISRF project and utilize such funds raised once the necessary approvals are received. We have
undertaken to SEBI vide our letter dated July 10, 2017 that the net proceeds assigned for the proposed ISRF
project shall be transferred to a separate bank account and we shall incur all expenditure on the ISRF project
through internal accruals till the time such pending approvals are received. Should there be any delay in receipt
of such approvals, we will have to continue financing the ISRF through our internal accruals of and/or through
debt/firm arrangements without recourse to the funds raised through the Issue for ISRF project. Further, in the
event we are not able to obtain the licenses or approvals for our proposed ISRF project, our Company shall utilize
the Net Proceeds assigned for the proposed ISRF project as per the applicable provisions of the Companies Act
and other applicable laws.

The implementation of the ISRF is contingent upon the receipt of the pending approvals. However, we cannot
assure you that the construction of our proposed Dry Dock or ISRF, will be completed as scheduled, or will
become operational as soon, or operate, as planned. Any delay or our inability to obtain approvals may adversely
impact our ability to set up the proposed projects and may have a detrimental impact on our growth prospects.

4. The cost estimates by the Dry Dock Project Consultant and the ISRF Project Consultant have been derived
from and benchmarked against similar maritime and dry dock/shipyard projects carried out by the Dry
Dock Project Consultant and the ISRF Project Consultant respectively in recent years and may not be
accurate.

The anticipated cost of construction of our proposed Dry Dock will be `17,989.91 million (based on a conversion
rate of `67.83 for one USD). The anticipated cost of the ISRF will be ` 9,694.1 million. Our anticipated costs for
our proposed Dry Dock and the ISRF are based on the DPRs prepared by the project consultants based on their
estimates, budgets and numerous assumptions, and has not been appraised by any bank, financial institution or
other independent organisation.

The Dry Dock Project Consultant maintains a confidential detailed in-house database of actual shipyard and
maritime construction costs based on all the construction projects they have been involved with. The cost estimates
provided under the DPR can be considered to be accurate to within +/-25% at DPR stage. The cost estimate also
excludes buildings that are not included within the scope of Dry Dock Project Consultant.

The cost estimate for our proposed Dry Dock project has been carried out by the Dry Dock Project Consultant in
February 2016. We shall tender work in relation to the civil work and plant and machinery on the basis of the
DPR and thus the final cost incurred by our Company may vary from the cost estimate provided by the Dry Dock
Project Consultant. The actual cost of the project may vary from the cost estimate provided by the Dry Dock
Project Consultant due to inflation and change in price of the equipment/ raw material/ man-power.

Further, the ISRF Project Consultants have estimated the capital construction costs based on applicable unit rates
for similar works as on September 2014. For pricing specific material (i.e. special maritime and onshore
equipment), the ISRF Project Consultants have considered imports from eligible countries. The ISRF Project
Consultants have considered price escalations up to March 31, 2017.

The actual costs of construction of our facilities may exceed such budgeted amounts due to a variety of factors
such as construction delays, adverse changes in raw material costs, interest rates, labour costs, foreign exchange
rates, regulatory and environmental factors, weather conditions and our financing needs. While we have placed
an order for the purchase of the shiplift and transfer system, we are yet to obtain quotations for the actual
construction of our proposed Dry Dock and the ISRF and we are yet to place orders for major civil contracts and
other plant and machinery or both the projects. Our financial condition, results of operations and liquidity would
be materially and adversely affected if our project or construction costs materially exceed such budgeted amounts.

Further, we cannot assure you that the construction of our proposed Dry Dock or ISRF, will be completed as
scheduled, or will become operational as soon, or operate as efficiently, as planned. For further details of the
scheduled operational dates of our proposed Dry Dock and the ISRF, see Objects of the Issue on page 85.

If there are delays in the construction of our proposed Dry Dock or the ISRF, problems with their facilities or for
other reasons, our proposed Dry Dock or the ISRF does not function as efficiently as intended, or our utilisation
of our proposed Dry Dock or the ISRF is not optimal, we may not be able to take additional orders to produce
anticipated or desired revenue as planned. As a result our business, financial condition, results of operations and
prospects could be materially and adversely affected.

20
5. We could incur losses under our fixed price contracts as a result of cost overruns, delays in delivery or
failures to meet contract specifications which may have an adverse effect on our business, financial
condition and results of operations.

Our shipyard operations are subject to risks including, among others, the breakdown, failure or sub-standard
performance of machinery, natural disasters like floods, tsunamis, earthquakes, other natural disasters, long
periods of adverse weather, social unrest, disruptions in transportation and strikes, which may result in operational
disruptions. Although we believe we have taken an insurance cover that is typical for our business, any material
operational disruptions will adversely affect our ability to meet our construction schedules and cause delays in the
delivery of vessels to our customers.

We are dependent on our suppliers for the timely delivery of raw materials, the most important of the raw materials
being steel, bought out equipment and components such as pumps, propellers and engines. Additionally, we
outsource certain aspects of our shipbuilding work scope, such as fabrication work, vessel sub-assemblies etc.,
from time to time, to our subcontractors. We also rely heavily on imports of steel and marine equipment and other
shipping related components that are not manufactured domestically or due to pricing advantages. Sometimes, we
have to compete with our competitors for these components, resulting in delays in the delivery of such
components. We are also dependent on the timely completion of sub-contracted works by our subcontractors when
we use their services. We may encounter situations where we are unable to deliver our products on a timely basis
due to, amongst other reasons, late or lack of delivery of raw materials from our suppliers, delivery of wrong
material or sub-standard material, or late completion of subcontracted works by our subcontractors. In addition,
we are also dependent on subcontract labour and production workers for the construction of our vessels. If we are
unable to source such raw materials, equipment and components from alternative suppliers on a timely basis, our
production schedule may be delayed, thereby delaying the delivery of the vessel to our customers. In addition, our
profitability may also be adversely affected if we are unable to secure alternative sources of such raw materials,
equipment and components in a cost efficient manner or if we are unable to recover liquidated damages from the
defaulting suppliers.

Most of our shipbuilding contracts are fixed-price contracts. In the case of IAC which is presently under Phase II
construction, the yard effort (work scope) is covered under fixed-price contracts and all procurement is on a cost
plus mark-up basis. In relation to small, medium and large vessels, we typically enter into contracts for a period
ranging from 18-24 months, 20-36 months and 40-72 months, respectively, prior to the scheduled delivery. All
costs including labour and raw materials costs are forecasted by us when we enter into such fixed-price contracts.
In case of cost variances from such estimates, we are permitted to retain all cost savings on completed contracts
but are liable for the full amount of all cost overruns. In the past, we have witnessed cost overruns in the case of
some of our contracts and we may also continue to witness the same in the future. The actual costs incurred on a
fixed-price contract may vary from our estimates due to factors such as:

unanticipated variations in labour and equipment productivity over the term of a contract;
unanticipated increases in labour, raw material, subcontracting and overhead costs, including as a result of
bad weather;
delivery delays and corrective measures for poor workmanship; and
equipment failures.

We cannot assure you that these contracts, if secured, can be completed profitably. Significant cost overruns on
our fixed price contracts could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of
operations and prospects.

Depending on the size of the project, variations from estimated contract performance could significantly reduce
our earnings, and could result in losses, during any quarter of a fiscal or entire fiscal. All of our fixed price
contracts provide for liquidated damages for late delivery. In the past, we have been required to re-negotiate some
of the terms, such as price, date of delivery, scope of work, of our shipbuilding contracts due to a delay in delivery
of the vessel owing to a combination of internal as well as external factors beyond our control. We have also had
to pay liquidated damages for delay in delivery and for quality issues. There can be no assurance that our customers
in future will not rescind their shipbuilding contracts with us if there is a delay in delivery beyond the time
stipulated in the contract or we may need to renegotiate some of our shipbuilding contracts. This may have an
impact on our reputation, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of
operations and prospects.

21
6. The environmental clearances for our proposed Dry Dock and ISRF project is subject to the final order in
the matter of Goa Foundation v. Union of India and amongst others for ISRF project, the prior clearance
of the Standing Committee of the National Board for Wildlife.

In relation to our proposed Dry Dock and ISRF project, we have received environmental clearances dated
November 9, 2016 and June 22, 2017, respectively, from the MOEFCC (collectively the Environmental
Clearances). The Environmental Clearances,for the ISRF project, are subject to, amongst other conditions,
obtaining prior clearance of the Standing Committee of the National Board for Wildlife (NBWL). Further, as
part of the general conditions, the Environment Clearances are also subject to the final order of the Supreme Court
of India in the matter of Goa Foundation vs Union of India in writ petition no. 460 of 2004 (the Goa Foundation
PIL), as may be applicable to the Dry Dock and ISRF project. While we have received the clearance of NBWL
for our proposed Dry Dock project on April 25, 2017, there is no assurance that clearance from NBWL for our
ISRF project will be available in time, or at all, to enable us to successfully complete the proposed ISRF project.

Further, in the event any adverse order is passed by the Supreme Court of India in the Goa Foundation PIL, we
may be required to temporarily or permanently discontinue the proposed Dry Dock and/or ISRF project or meet
additional compliance or other associated costs in relation to the proposed Dry Dock and ISRF projects (including
costs after completion of such projects) which cannot be currently ascertained or quantified.

Further any requirements to incur additional costs as one of the conditions of the Environmental Clearances may
adversely affect our business, financial conditions, reputation and results of operations. For further details in
relation to the Goa Foundation PIL, see Outstanding Litigation and Other Material Developments Details of
pending litigation involving any other person whose outcome could have material adverse effect on the position
of our Company on page 379.

7. Our future growth and expansion is limited by our production capacities and the location at which we
operate.

Our production capacity is limited by, amongst other things, the size of our shipyard, the number, size and
capacities of our berths, docks and our plant and equipment. See Our Business - Our Operations on page 133
for a discussion of our facilities. In addition, the size and capacity of the vessels we construct is limited by our
location at which we operate. Our proposed Dry Dock will be constructed within our current premises and the
new ISRF facility will be constructed on land leased from Cochin Port Trust. Post the construction of our proposed
Dry Dock we will not be able to undertake any further expansion activities on our premises due to a lack of
additional space.

Further the operations of the cranes at the proposed Dry Dock will be subject to the restrictions specified in the
letter dated December 20, 2016 issued by the Ministry of Defence to inter alia our Company.Currently, we are
limited to the construction of vessels up to 110,000 DWT and repair of ships up to the size of 125,000 DWT at
our shipyard. In the event that we are unable to relocate or increase our production capabilities to enable us to
construct such vessels, we may lose business opportunities and our business, results of operations, financial
condition and prospects will be adversely affected.

We cannot assure you that we will be able to manage the future expansion of our facilities effectively. Any failure
on our part to do so will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations
and prospects.

8. Our entire business operations are based out of a single shipyard at Kochi. The loss of, or shutdown of,
our operations at our shipyard in Kochi will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial
condition and results of operations.

Our shipbuilding and other facilities are based out of single premises in our shipyard in Kochi. Accordingly, we
rely exclusively on our facilities at our shipyard in Kochi to earn revenues, pay our operating expenses and service
our debt. Any significant interruption to, or loss or shutdown of, operations at our shipyard in Kochi would
adversely affect our business. Our shipbuilding, ship repair, and other business activities, may be subject to
unexpected interruptions, including from natural and man-made disasters. Our facilities and operations could be
adversely affected by, among other factors, breakdown or failure of equipment, difficulties or delays in obtaining
spare parts and equipment, power supply or processes, performance below expected levels of output or efficiency,
obsolescence, labour disputes, natural disasters, raw material shortages, fire, explosion and other unexpected

22
industrial accidents and the need to comply with the directives of relevant government authorities.

Furthermore, any significant interruption to our operations directly or indirectly as a result of industrial accidents,
severe weather or other natural disasters could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition
and results of operations. Similar adverse consequences could follow if war, or war-like situation were to prevail,
terrorist attacks were to affect our related infrastructure, or if the Government of India were to temporarily take
over the facility during a time of national emergency. In addition, any disruption in basic infrastructure, such as
in the supply of electricity from the State of Kerala or in our water supply could substantially increase our
manufacturing costs. We do not maintain business interruption insurance and will not be covered for any claims
or damages arising out of such disruptions. Any disruption of our existing supply of basic infrastructure services
such as power or water, our failure to obtain such additional supplies as required by us or an increase in the cost
of such supplies may result in additional costs to us. In such situations, our production capacity may be materially
and adversely impacted. In the event our facilities are forced to shut down for a significant period of time, our
earnings, financial condition and results of operation would be materially and adversely affected.

9. We may be unable to attract and retain sufficient skilled or qualified personnel. Our business, financial
condition and results of operations could be adversely affected if we are unable to recruit and retain
suitable staff for our operations.

Our operations require highly skilled and qualified personnel, such as engineers, skilled workmen and other
technicians. Further, we will require additional employees and subcontract labour and production workers at our
proposed Dry Dock and ISRF facilities. However, competition for skilled shipyard labour in India is intense. Our
competitors may also be expanding their operations and may require additional workers. As a result, we may from
time to time, experience difficulties in attracting and retaining highly skilled employees. For example, our
engineers are instrumental in analysing the design blueprints of new vessels and play a central role in designing
the hull, electrical and piping system and producing the production engineering drawings. They also play a critical
role in our cost management system, as we are dependent on them to formulate production design plans that will
allow for the efficient utilisation of our raw materials. Our inability to maintain a sufficient number of skilled and
qualified personnel to handle the more sophisticated and technology-intensive processes, or our inability to pay
substantially higher salaries to procure these personnel could have a material adverse effect on our business,
financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Labour shortages could increase the cost of labour and hinder our productivity and ability to complete the
construction of our vessels on time, which would materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition,
results of operations and prospects.

We believe that the present salary levels of our employees are high compared to average industry standards in
India. An increase in labour costs or minimum wage laws in Kerala may further increase our employee and labour
costs. Employee compensation in India has historically been lower than employee compensation in the United
States and Western Europe and in Asian countries such as South Korea and Japan, for comparably skilled
professionals, which has been one of our competitive strengths. Employee compensation increases in India may
reduce some of this competitive advantage and may negatively affect our profit margins. Furthermore, as per the
CRISIL Report, the effective cost of labour in Indian shipyards is higher as compared to Japanese and Korean
shipyards, due to a lack of automated systems in Indian shipyards augmenting the production process. Although
labour costs in India are lower, they may increase at a faster rate than in the aforementioned countries and regions,
which could result in increased costs relating to engineers, managers and other mid-level professionals. We may
need to continue to increase the levels of our employee compensation to retain key employees and manage
attrition. Such increase may have an adverse effect on our business, profitability and financial condition.

Further, we utilise contract labour in our shipyard on a regular basis. In the event that we are unable to secure our
required contract labour through these arrangements, or if the costs for such services increase, our business, and
results of operations may be adversely affected. In addition, under the Contract Labour (Regulation and Abolition)
Act, 1970, as amended, we may be required to absorb a number of such contract labourers as permanent
employees. Any such order from a regulatory body or court may have an adverse effect on our business, results
of operations, cash flows and financial condition.

10. There are outstanding legal and tax proceedings involving our Company. Further, in one of the
outstanding legal proceedings, the Chairman and Managing Director of our Company has also been made
a performa party. Any adverse decision in such proceedings may expose us to liabilities or penalties and
may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

23
 As on the date of this Red Herring Prospectus, we are involved in certain civil and tax (direct and indirect)
proceedings, which are pending at different levels of adjudication before various courts, tribunals, forums and
appellate authorities. We cannot assure you that these legal proceedings will be decided in our favour. Decisions
in proceedings adverse to our interests may have a significant adverse effect on our business, financial condition,
results of operations and cash flows. In relation to tax proceedings, in the event of any adverse outcome, we may
be required to pay the disputed amounts along with applicable interest and penalty and may also incur additional
tax incidence going forward.

A summary of pending tax proceedings and other material litigation involving our Company is provided below:

24
need to make provisions in our financial statements that could increase our expenses and current or long term
liabilities. For further details, see Outstanding Litigation and Other Material Developments on page 375.

11. Our strategic cooperation agreements with various business partners may not yield the benefits we expect.

We have entered into a number of strategic cooperation agreements with some of our customers. For example, we
signed a MoU with Lakshadweep Development Corporation Limited (LDCL) on April 12, 2013 for routine &
dry-dock repairs and to also attend to emergency/afloat repairs to vessels. We have also entered into MoUs with
DGLL for dry dock repairs of many of their ships, DCI for repairs of dredgers, Wartsila for the setting up of a
workshop within our premises. Our board has also approved the formation of a joint venture between HDPEL and
us for which we would invest `220 million towards the initial capital of the Company.

We expect to enter into more strategic cooperation agreements during the development of our business. However,
some of these strategic cooperation agreements may not actually bring us benefits as we expected. Furthermore,
a strategic cooperation agreement may not be implemented as we expected. If our strategic cooperation partners
refuse to adhere to the relevant strategic cooperation agreements or enter into individual contracts with us in
relation to a specific matter, we may not have legal rights to hold them liable for our damages or loss of profits.
Therefore, a strategic cooperation agreement may not convey any actual benefit to us. You should not rely on the
strategic cooperation agreements to evaluate our results of operations and financial condition.

12. The delivery of IAC which forms a significant portion of our current order book has been delayed. Future
delays may materially and adversely affect our reputation, results of operations and financial condition.

We are building Indias first IAC for the Indian Navy. The publicly available CAG report on this matter titled
Union Defence Services Navy and Coast Guard tabled on July 26, 2016 states that IACs delivery with
completion of all delivery-related activities is likely to be achieved only by 2023.

This delay has been attributed by the CAG Report to several reasons including late procurement of key parts,
further delayed supply of key raw materials including steel and other bought out components and frequent changes
to and lack of design information. The Indian Navy has claimed that many changes to the design which led to the
delay were proposed by us.

The CAG report also cites our lack of experience both in relation to vessel type and size and the complexity of
the project. While we do not agree with CAGs assessment of this matter, further delay and disagreements in
relation to this project may materially and adversely affect our reputation, results of operations and financial
condition.

13. Our growth rate, the number of orders we have received in the past and our current order book may not
be indicative of our future growth rate or the number of orders we will receive in the future.

Our order book on hand, as of a certain date, represents the total nominal value of the contracts that have not been
completed, excluding the portion of revenue in respect of those orders that we have recognized as of such date.
As of March 31, 2017, our shipbuilding order book consisted of eight vessels with an aggregate outstanding
revenue value of ` 29,361.49 million. The successful conversion of these orders into our revenue depends on a
number of factors including, among other things, absence of adverse changes in the Indian and global shipping
markets, the availability of funds to ship-owners, competition, our production capacity, our research and
development and our ability to deliver the vessels on time. Some of the factors are beyond our control and by
nature, are subject to uncertainty. Going forward, our order book may be affected by delays, cancellations and the
renegotiations of the contracts, if any, therefore we cannot assure you that we will be able to deliver all of our
existing orders on schedule and successfully turn them into our revenue. Therefore, you should not consider our
order book as an accurate indicator of our future performance or future revenue.

As of March 31, 2017, our ship repair order book had a total outstanding revenue value of `3,698.32 million.
While we currently do not have any ships on order in which we have a lack of experience or expertise, in the
future we may contract orders for new products or we may diversify our products into lines in which we have no
experience and in such circumstances we cannot assure you that we may not encounter delays in the delivery of
these vessels or that these vessels will not have defects, poor workmanship or non-conformity to specifications.

We have grown steadily in the last few years. Our total revenues and PAT have increased from `16,604.52 million
and `692.82 million respectively in Fiscal 2015 to `22,085.01 million and `3,121.82 million, respectively, in

25
Fiscal 2017 at a CAGR of 15.33% and 112.27% respectively. We cannot assure you that we will be able to
maintain our past growth rate or secure the same number of orders we have received in the past. Our past growth
rate or secured orders should not be relied upon as indicators of our future growth rate or orders we will receive
in the future. To the extent that we experience any significant decrease in demand for our products, increase in
competition or increase in the prices of raw materials, equipment and components, our business, financial
condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected. Our continuous growth depends on
a number of factors, many of which are beyond our control, including the impact on demand for our products
resulting from the macroeconomic policies of the Indian government and governments in other countries, the level
of competition in India and sectors in which we conduct business and the prices we pay for raw materials,
equipment and components. For example, as on the date of this Red Herring Prospectus, we have not received a
single order for building an LNG vessel.

Furthermore, we face risks of a low growth rate of orders because the shipbuilding orders placed by our customers
are typically non-recurring in nature. As a result, we cannot assure you that we will receive the same number of
orders as or more orders than we have received in the past or that the contract value of the order book will remain
the same or increase. As a result, you should not take the number of orders we have received in the past or the
current value of our order book as an indicator of our performance or numbers of orders in the future.

14. We may face claims and incur additional rectification costs for defects and warranties in respect of our
vessels and offshore business structures which could have a negative effect on our business, financial
condition and results of operations.

We may face claims by our customers in respect of defects, poor workmanship or non-conformity to our
customers specifications in respect of vessels and offshore business structures built by us and such claims could
be substantial. Such claims could also adversely affect our reputation and ability to grow our business. We
generally extend a warranty period of 12 months to our customers for new vessels from the date of delivery. We
are also generally required to give additional warranties for the time period between the completion of construction
and delivery of our vessels. Due to the length of the warranty period extended by us, we may be subject to claims
from our customers and we may incur additional costs if rectification work is required in order for us to satisfy
our obligations during the warranty period. We cannot assure that our warranty provisions will be sufficient to
cover the costs incurred for defects. If the costs of any rectification works exceed the warranty provisions we have
made, our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may be adversely affected.

15. Our operations expose us to potential liabilities that may not be covered by insurance or greater than our
existing insurance cover. As a result should we incur substantial liability which our insurance does not
cover our business, financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected.

Our operations are subject to inherent risks such as equipment defects, malfunctions and failures, equipment
misuse and natural disasters that can result in fires and explosions. We maintain a standard fire and special perils
policy but we do not have insurance for business interruption. Substantial portions of our activities involve the
fabrication and refurbishment of large steel structures, the operation of cranes and other heavy machinery and
other operating hazards. These risks could expose us to substantial liability for personal injury, wrongful death,
product liability, property damage, pollution and other environmental damages. Although we have obtained
insurance for our employees as required by Indian laws and regulations, as well as our important properties and
assets, our insurance may not be adequate to cover all potential liabilities. We also maintain various other
insurance policies including: public liability insurance, a directors/officers liability policy, a marine hull policy,
ship repairers liability insurance policy and a builders risk insurance policy. We cannot assure you that insurance
will be generally available in the future or, if available, that the premiums will not increase or remain commercially
justifiable. If we incur substantial liability and the insurance does not, or is insufficient to, cover the damages, our
business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may be materially adversely affected.

16. We may not be able to secure new contracts if we are unable to issue the requisite performance guarantees.

The shipbuilding industry is a capital intensive industry and as the contract prices for new vessels are generally
high, we are usually required to furnish our customers with performance guarantees as security for the fulfilment
of our contractual obligations under our shipbuilding contracts.

In order for us to secure performance guarantees, banks and financial institutions review, among other things, our
financial standing and creditworthiness. Generally, we arrange for banks to issue performance guarantees to our
customers from our available banking facilities. If we do not have available banking facilities to issue the

26
performance guarantees, we approach other banks or financial institutions to issue the performance guarantee.
While we have been able to procure performance guarantees for new contracts to date, in the event that we are
unable to do so and we are unable to satisfy the financial requirements prescribed by banks and financial
institutions, we will not be able to procure the requisite performance guarantees and as a result, we may be unable
to secure new contracts, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results
of operations and prospects.

17. We face the risk of unsatisfactory quality of work performed by our subcontractors which could result in
a negative impact on our business, reputation, financial condition and results of operations.

We rely substantially on subcontractors for our labour requirements. Instead of maintaining a large number of full
time employees, we employ a significant number of contract labour and production workers, which we can
increase or decrease to suit our requirements. We may outsource certain aspects of our shipbuilding work, such
as the production of certain vessel sub-assemblies and structural sections, from time to time, to our contractors.
Despite our best efforts, inspection supervision and quality management system, these subcontractors may use
poor quality or defective sub-components or underqualified or less skilled workers, and as a result, should a sub-
standard quality of vessel be delivered, this could adversely impact our reputation. Furthermore, our
subcontractors may not report safety concerns. This may lead to increased costs borne by us, which could
adversely affect our business, reputation, financial condition, results of operations and prospects and our
relationships with our customers. In addition, should our subcontractors default on their contractual obligations
or be unable to complete their work according to specifications on schedule, our ability to deliver the vessels to
our customers in accordance with the quality or timing specifications in the shipbuilding contract may be
compromised, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of
operations and prospects. Our Company also assumes liability for the work undertaken by the subcontractors in
connection with any design or engineering work and hence, any failure on the part of our sub-contractors to
perform their obligations in a timely manner or at all could adversely affect our operations, financial conditions
and cash flows.

18. Our businesses are dependent on our information technology infrastructure and we rely on third-party
licences for our business.

We are dependent on our information technology infrastructure to conduct our business activities, manage risks,
implement our internal control systems and manage and monitor our business operations. The key systems in
place include an enterprise resource planning system, which enables our management to more accurately assess
the inventory, production capacity, procurement requirements and performance of each of our departments and
assists them in allocating resources throughout our business and improves operational efficiency by enhancing
supply chain and distribution management. We also use third party software for creating detailed designs in
relation to the vessels we build. We rely on third party information technology service providers to maintain and
upgrade our systems and have contracted reputable information technology companies widely accepted in our
industry to construct and improve our information technology infrastructure. A failure or breakdown of any part
of our information technology infrastructure can interrupt our normal business operations, result in a slowdown
in operational and management efficiency and impact our ability to meet our construction schedules. A serious
dispute with our information technology service providers or termination of our licensing agreements or service
contracts can impact our ability to upgrade our information technology infrastructure on a timely and cost-
effective basis, which is critical to maintaining our competitiveness. If any of these events occur, our business,
financial condition and result of operations may be adversely affected.

19. Our planned capital expenditure may not yield the intended benefits or we may be unable to raise finances
to fund our planned capital expenditure which may negatively impact our business, financial condition
and results of operations.

We plan to use part of net proceeds, internal accruals, additional bank financing and future equity issuances to
fund our planned capital expenditure and future expansion (including the development of the Dry Dock). The
amount of such additional required funding will depend on whether these projects are completed within budget,
the timing of completion of the construction of the Dry Dock and the ISRF, expansion of our revenue generating
operations, any further investments we may make, and the amount of cash flow from our operations in the future.
If delays and cost overruns are significant, the additional funding we would require could be substantial.
Additional bank financing may not be available as and when required and, if incurred, would result in increased
debt service obligations and could result in additional operating and financing covenants, or liens on our assets,
that would restrict our operations. The sale of additional equity securities could result in additional dilution to our

27
shareholders.

As of June 30, 2017, our fund-based financial indebtedness was `1,230.00 million (tax free bonds excluding
interest). Our ability to obtain required funding on acceptable terms is subject to a number of uncertainties,
including:

limitations on our ability to incur additional debt, including as a result of prospective lenders evaluations of
our creditworthiness and pursuant to restrictions on incurrence of debt in our existing and anticipated credit
arrangements;
investors and lenders perception of, and demand for, debt and equity securities of shipbuilding companies
and companies engaged in the offshore business, as well as the offerings of competing financing and
investment opportunities in India by our competitors;
conditions in the Indian and international capital markets in which we may seek to raise funds;
our future results of operations, financial condition and cash flows; and
economic, political and other conditions in India and internationally.
Further, State Bank of Travancore (SBT) had issued a letter of credit on our behalf. However, the related
sanction letter has expired and SBT was merged with SBI with effect from April 1, 2017. Subsequent to this
merger, our existing letter of credit and indebtedness has been transferred to SBI.

We cannot assure you that necessary financing will be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, or at all.
If we fail to raise additional funds in such amounts and at such times as we may need, we may be forced to reduce
our capital expenditures and construction to a level that can be supported by our currently available funding
sources and delay the construction of our proposed Dry Dock, and ISRF, which may result in our inability to meet
drawing conditions under our current loan facilities or default and exercise of remedies by the lenders under our
loan facilities. In that event, we may be unable to complete our projects under construction and could suffer a
partial or complete loss of our investments in our projects.

20. We cannot assure you that we will be able to compete successfully against our competitors and new
entrants to the industry. If we are unable to compete effectively in any of our business segments, it may
adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our business is highly competitive. We face competition from existing competitors located both in India and
elsewhere, and in particular in South Korea, Japan and China, as well as new entrants to this industry. For further
details, see Industry Overview on page 104. We compete on the basis of our ability to fulfil our contractual
obligations including the timely delivery of vessels constructed by us, our yards capacity and operational
efficiencies and the price and quality of the vessels we construct. Some of our competitors have more resources
than we have and some of our competitors may have lower costs of operations, including lower costs of raw
materials and manpower, than we have. In addition, some of our competitors may have competitive advantages
in building certain types of vessels compared to us given our current dock size and other facility constraints. Our
competitors, particularly those in India, from time to time, may engage in aggressive and unviable pricing and
delivery schedules in order to gain market share. Further, most of our clients follow competitive bidding processes
due to which we may not be able to effectively bid for future projects.

Moreover, our competitors outside India may be able to source cheaper raw materials given that indigenous
ancillary industries are virtually non-existent in India and therefore we are required to import a substantial portion
of our major raw materials and other equipment. In addition, a number of shipbuilding companies currently focus
on building different types of vessels than we do. Although these shipbuilding companies currently do not compete
with us, they may possess the capability to build the types of vessels we build and we cannot assure you that they
will not compete with us in the future. See OurBusiness - Competition for a description of our key competitors.

Further, due to recent liberalisation policies, private companies have been allowed to bid for vessels used in
defence-related projects. This may lead to increased competition and there can be no assurance that we will be
able to compete successfully against our competitors as well as new entrants in our industry in the future, or that
the shipbuilding and ship-repair companies that are not directly in competition with us now will not compete with
us in the future. Accordingly, our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects would be
adversely and materially affected if we are unable to maintain our competitive advantage and compete successfully
against our competitors and any new entrants to our industry in the future.

28
21. We have had negative net cash flows in the past and may continue to have negative cash flows in the
future.

We had negative cash flow from our financing activities as set out below:
(in ` million)
For the Financial Year ended March 31,
2017 2016 2015
Net cash from financing activities (1,125.21) (318.92) (2,353.93)

For further details, see Financial Statements and Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations on pages 175 and 334, respectively. We cannot assure you that our net cash
flow will be positive in the future.

22. We are exposed to the risk of increases in the price of our raw materials. Further, if we are unable to
source quality raw materials required for our business at competitive prices, our business, results of
operations and profitability may be adversely affected.

The major components of our expenditure include raw materials such as steel (the grade and quality of which, in
each project, depends on the applicable classification rules) and other materials, equipment and other components
such as pumps, propellers and engines. In Fiscals 2015, 2016 and 2017 respectively, our material consumption
costs constituted 64.57%,64.01% and 58.36% of our total costs, respectively. In particular, boughtout components
accounted for nearly 90% of our total raw material cost in these recent fiscals.

Shortages in the supply of the raw materials we use in our business may result in an increase in the price of these
raw materials. For example, there are supply-side constraints in relation to steel in India which we expect will
continue in the future. The Indian steel industry has been unable to compete globally due to which the GoI has
imposed significant duties on the import of steel from other countries such as China to protect the domestic steel
industry. This has adversely affected us by increasing our cost of procurement. In addition, the cost of certain raw
materials, such as steel, may fluctuate in line with any changes in their global supply and demand.

In the event that the price of our raw materials increase, we will not be able to pass these price increases to our
customers on our existing fixed contracts and our business, financial condition and results of operations may be
adversely affected.

23. We are subject to stringent labour laws and our workmen are unionised under a number of trade unions.
Labour disputes could lead to lost production and increased costs.

India has stringent labour legislation that protects the interests of workers, including legislation that sets forth
detailed procedures for discharge of employees and dispute resolution and imposes financial obligations on
employers upon employee layoffs. As a result of such stringent labour regulations, it is difficult for us to maintain
flexible human resource policies, discharge employees or downsize, which may adversely affect our business,
financial condition and results of operations. Additional labour unrest could result due to the operative labour
union within our workforce. We cannot assure you that there will not be any face, strikes or work stoppages in
the future, which could have an adverse impact on our operations, particularly given our dependence on a large
workforce. For further details, see History and certain Corporate Matters Lock-out, Strikes, etc on page 149.

24. Certain properties, including the land on which we are constructing the ISRF, are not owned by us and
we enjoy only a leasehold right over certain of these properties. If we are unable to occupy and use this
land or fails to extend the lease period on lease expiry on reasonable terms, it may have a material adverse
effect on the business, financial condition and results of operations of our Company.

We do not own the land on which the ISRF and related facilities are being constructed and has been taken by us
on lease, pursuant to a lease agreement dated April 12, 2013 between the Cochin Port Trust and us for a term of
30 years, together with the right to use 15 hectares or thereabouts of adjoining water body. In the event that we
are unable to obtain an extension or the lease is terminated due to any reason or the lease expires after the original
period of lease of 30 years, we will have to transfer the ISRF facility to CoPT along with all the assets developed
in relation thereto on the basis of a third-party valuation of assets to be paid by CoPT.

Upon expiration of the lease agreement for our leased premises, we will be required to negotiate the terms and

29
conditions on which the lease agreement may be renewed. Termination of our lease may occur for reasons beyond
our control, such as breach of any terms of the lease agreement by the landlord of our premises. If we, our current
or future landlords breach the lease agreement, we may have to shut down our operations at this site. Shut down
of any part of our operations may cause disruptions to our business and may require significant expenditure, which
may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

25. We are subject to extensive government regulation and if we fail to obtain, maintain or renew our statutory
and regulatory licenses, permits and approvals required for our business, our results of operations and
cash flows may be adversely affected.

Our operations are subject to extensive government regulation and we are required to obtain and maintain a
number of statutory and regulatory permits and approvals under central, state and local government rules in India,
generally for carrying out our business and for each of our manufacturing facilities. For details of applicable
regulations and approvals relating to our business and operations, see Regulations and Policies and
Government and Other Approvals on pages 139 and 382, respectively.

A majority of these approvals are granted for a limited duration and require renewal. The approvals required by
our Company are subject to numerous conditions and we cannot assure you that these would not be suspended or
revoked in the event of non-compliance or alleged noncompliance with any terms or conditions thereof, or
pursuant to any regulatory action. If there is any failure by us to comply with the applicable regulations or if the
regulations governing our business are amended, we may incur increased costs, be subject to penalties, have our
approvals and permits revoked or suffer a disruption in our operations, any of which could adversely affect our
business.

26. Our business is expected to become more diversified and our historical results of operations may not be
indicative of our future performance. Failure to successfully implement our new business model, execute
our new business strategies or develop new business may materially and adversely affect our business,
financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

We are presently constructing the first IAC for the Indian Navy. We have also obtained a licence to aid us in
building LNG carriers using the patented membrane containment system. As part of our growth strategy, we intend
to diversify our product offerings to include vessels for inland water transportation.

As we do not have sufficient experience in manufacturing these new products and since our contracts typically
provide for liquidated damages for late delivery, we may encounter greater risks of cost overruns and delays in
delivery on these contracts than on those for the vessels we built in the past. These vessels are often more complex
in design and more difficult to build. We may be unable to spread the cost of design and research and development
among similar vessels or have a profit margin comparable to that from other vessels normally we build. We do
not yet have all the technological know-how or intellectual property rights to build these vessels and may have to
spend large amounts of fees to obtain licenses or invest a substantial amount of capital and human resources in
conducting research and designing and building prototypes. Development costs of these new products may be
excessive and may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We derived the majority of our revenue from our shipbuilding business, which accounted for 83.44%,77.54% and
68.64% of our total revenue for Fiscals 2015, 2016 and 2017 respectively. We expect to gain the capacity to
manufacture complex products in the near future and a wider variety of other vessels in the long run. Even if we
acquire the capacity and capability in the new segment, there is no assurance that we will secure new orders in
this segment competing with overseas shipyards.

We are in the process of constructing our proposed Dry Dock at a total estimated cost of `17,989.91 million. We
are also setting up the ISRF at an investment of approximately `9,694.1 million. We do not have previous track
record or expertise in a project involving such capital expenditure. We cannot assure you that we will be successful
due to, among others, the following factors:

our failure to correctly identify relevant market trends including those relating to, customer demand for the
type of vessels that we propose to build on this basis, the cost of raw materials, movements in foreign
exchange rates and the price of such vessels;
our inability to properly manage our cash flow, financing resources and in relation to the new business model;
higher interest expense or reduced interest income due to funding the new business model using our own

30
 capital;
our failure to manage construction costs and cost overruns; or
our inability to find customers to purchase or lease these vessels at prices acceptable to us.

Our expansion within a short period of time has imposed on us new operational, management and planning
demands, which are significantly different from those we encountered in operating our business and for which we
may require different expertise and experience.

The implementation of these strategies depends on a number of factors including, among other things, absence of
adverse changes in the Indian and global shipping markets, the availability of funds, less competition, government
policies and our ability to retain and recruit competent employees. Some of the factors are beyond our control and
by nature, are subject to uncertainty. There is no assurance that our strategies can be implemented successfully.
Any failure or delay in the implementation of any or all of these strategies may have a material adverse effect on
our profitability and prospects. There can be no assurance that our revenues or profits will continue to increase or
that our profit margin will not significantly decrease or that we will not experience losses from our new businesses.
As a result, our historical results of operations may not be indicative of our future performance.

27. Trade unions under which majority of our workmen are unionised have objected to the proposed Issue.
This may lead to strikes, lock-down or work stoppages which will adversely affect our operations,
reputation and financial condition.

Majority of our workmen have opposed the proposed Issue and have submitted their statement of objection
through their respective trade unions to us. A 24-hour strike was held by the worker unions against the proposed
Issue on April 28, 2017.

We cannot assure you that we will not face any strikes or work stoppages in the future or agitations by our
workmen against the proposed Issue, which may affect adversely affect our reputation and could have an adverse
impact on our operations.

28. We are dependent on the Cochin Port Trust (CoPT) for certain basic services required for daily
operations. If our relationship with CoPT is negatively affected in any manner or if CoPT is unable to
provide these services in the future, it may have an adverse impact on our operations.

We outsource certain basic services which are key to our daily operations such as pilotage, tugs and voyage
permits to CoPT. Timely availability of these services is a critical factor for successful execution of our daily
operations. There can be no assurance that CoPT will continue to provide us these services in the future on terms
favourable to us, or at all. If our relationship with CoPT is negatively affected in any manner or if CoPT is unable
to provide these services in the future, it may have an adverse impact on our operations.

29. The sea channel adjacent to our shipyard suffers from siltation which requires incurring additional
expenditure.

The Kochi port is a riverine port which is prone to higher than usual levels of siltation. Due to this, periodic
dredging and maintenance is required to keep the water channel functional for our use and needs. This requires
incurring of additional expenditure compared to shipyards in other parts of India. If we are required to incur
substantial expenditure on dredging in relation to this, it may affect our results of operations and financial
condition.

30. We depend on the contribution of key management personnel. The loss of their services may have a
material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our success depends, to a significant extent, upon the continued service of our key management personnel. If we
lose the services of any of our existing key management personnel without timely and suitable replacements, or
are unable to attract and retain new personnel with suitable experience as we grow, our financial performance and
operations may be materially and adversely affected. Our Chairman and Managing Director (Madhu S Nair) and
Director (Technical), (Sunny Thomas), Director (Finance) (Paul Ranjan), and Director (Operations) (Suresh Babu
N V), have been with us for over 20 years and have been instrumental in charting the business direction and
spearheading our growth. Accordingly, the loss of one or more members of our senior management team could

31
have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects, as these
persons may be difficult to replace.

31. Factors beyond our control or the control of our customers may cause our customers to terminate their
projects, postpone purchases from us or default on payments owed to us, which may adversely affect our
business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our customers retain the right to change/reduce the scope/terminate/indefinitely postpone their shipbuilding
contracts. In the event of a change/reduction in scope/termination/indefinite postponement of a shipbuilding
contract, the customer is generally required to pay for work performed and raw materials purchased up to the date
of termination, and in most cases, pay to us a termination fee representing our profit margin if the project had been
completed, which has to be agreed between the customer and us. However, any termination of a significant
contract would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and
prospects.

Furthermore, factors beyond our control or the control of our customers may cause our customers to postpone
purchases from us. Due to the possibility of changes in project scope and schedule as a result of exercises of our
customers discretion or reasons outside the control of our customers, we cannot predict with certainty when, if
or to what extent a project will be performed.

Even where a project proceeds as scheduled, it is possible that the contracting parties may default or otherwise
fail to pay amounts owed. Any reduction in scope, payment postponement or payment default in regard to order
book projects or disputes with customers in respect of any of the foregoing could materially harm our financial
condition, results of operations and cash flows.

32. We have sought to renegotiate our agreements with some of our commercial shipping customers and we
are engaged in arbitration with an agent in respect of a terminated agency agreement.

We have sought to renegotiate some of our agreements with our commercial shipbuilding customers in the past.
This renegotiation has been primarily due to our failure to deliver the vessels on time. Such delay was caused due
to various factors including equipment failures, delay in supply of materials and other technical reasons.

We are also engaged in arbitration proceedings with an agent in respect of a terminated agency agreement and
their brokerage claim on a particular shipbuilding contract secured by us from Saudi Arabia. On November 24,
2015, the arbitral tribunal passed an award directing us to pay a commission of US$ 0.91 million along with
interest at 8% per annum till payment is made to the agent. Aggrieved by the arbitral award, we have filed a
petition in the civil court for a stay of execution. The civil court has granted a stay of execution until the disposal
of the original Petition. The matter is currently pending. For further details, see Outstanding Litigation and Other
Material Developments Litigations against our Company - Other material pending litigations on page 376. We
cannot assure you that the outcome of the proceedings will be favourable to us. An unfavourable outcome, in this
matter may have an adverse effect on our business, profitability and financial condition.

33. We have contingent liabilities and commitments in our balance sheet, as restated, at March 31, 2017.
Further our Company may be subject to certain proceedings in respect of ongoing tax litigations and our
Company has not presently provided for such disputed demands including penalties, if any, which may be
imposed. Realisation of our contingent liabilities may adversely impact our profitability and may have a
material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

The following are the contingent liabilities and commitments in our balance sheet, as restated, as at March 31,
2017. If any of these actually occur in the future, they may adversely impact our profitability and may have a
material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition:

The contingent liabilities of our Company arise as our Company is party to certain tax litigations pending before
various tribunals and our Company may also be subject to imposition of penalty by the Income Tax Department
in relation to such litigations. Our Company has not made provision for such penalties as may be imposed in its
contingent liabilities as the amount of penalty which may be imposed is not quantifiable.

34. Our quality control department and quality control assurance and monitoring procedures may not identify
all defects, poor workmanship or non-conformities to client specifications, which could adversely affect
our reputation, business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

In addition to the various certifications received by us, we have established a quality control department
comprising of engineers and support personnel with significant experience in the shipbuilding industry and we
intend to further strengthen this department. We have established a set of quality control assurance and monitoring
procedures applicable to every stage of the vessel construction process. Testing and sea trials are also expected to
be conducted prior to delivery of the vessel to our customers. However, there can be no assurances that our quality
control department and quality control assurance and monitoring procedures will identify all defects, poor
workmanship or non-conformities to our customers specifications in respect of vessels and Offshore Business
structures built by us. If our quality control department and quality control assurance and monitoring procedures
do not to identify certain defects, poor workmanship or non-conformity to our customers specifications, claims
arising from such defects, poor workmanship or non-conformities could be substantial. Such claims could also
adversely affect our reputation, business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

35. Our Company has applied for registration of certain trademarks including our corporate logo in its name.
Until such registrations are granted, we may not be able to prevent unauthorised use of such trademarks
by third parties, which may lead to the dilution of our goodwill and adversely affect our business.

We have filed applications for registration of four trademarks including our corporate logo, under the Trademarks
Act, 1999 (Trademarks Act), which is currently pending approval from the Registrar of Trademarks. In two
of applications filed by us, showcause hearing is expected and the other two are advertised before acceptance in

34
the trademark journal. Although all the clarifications sought by the registration authority have been provided by
us, there can be no assurance that our trademark applications will be accepted and the trademarks will be
registered. Pending the registration of these trademarks we may have a lesser recourse to initiate legal proceedings
to protect our private labels. However, we may have to incur additional cost in relation to this. In the event we
are not able to obtain registrations due to opposition by third parties or if any injunctive or other adverse order is
issued against us in respect of any of our trademarks for which we have applied for registration, we may not be
able to avail the legal protection or prevent unauthorised use of such trademarks by third parties, which may
adversely affect our goodwill and business.

For further details on the trademarks which are pending registration, see Government and Other Approvals on
page 382.

36. We are subject to risks arising from currency exchange rate fluctuations including in respect to our
proposed Dry Dock project, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of
operations.

Changes in currency exchange rates may influence our results of operations. Globally, a substantial part of all
worldwide ship sales transactions and purchase of offshore structures is generally conducted in USD. While only
a small portion of our total revenue in the last three years was received by us in currencies other than the Rupee,
this proportion may increase in the future. Since a significant part of our costs are incurred in Rupee, depreciation
of Rupee versus USD and EUR will result in lower revenues in Rupee terms, which could adversely affect our
profitability.

We have a foreign exchange policy pursuant to which every contract net inflow of foreign exchange is hedged.
As and when outflows are incurred, the required foreign exchange is bought from market at the then prevailing
exchange rate.

However, in the case of import components in respect of shipbuilding/ship repair contracts denominated in Rupee
terms, our Company is exposed to exchange rate fluctuation risk unless the contract with the ship owner provides
for an exchange variation reimbursement clause. Further, the DD DPR sets out the breakdown of the estimated
cost involved in USD. The total cost of the proposed Dry Dock project has been disclosed in INR based on a
conversion rate of ` 67.83 for USD one as on February 6, 2016. Hence, any fluctuation in the currency rates may
affect the cost of our proposed Dry Dock Project and may influence our results of operations.

Our future capital expenditures, including raw materials, equipment and machinery, may be denominated in
currencies other than Rupee. Therefore, declines in the value of the Rupee against the USD or other foreign
currencies would increase the Rupee cost of servicing and repaying those borrowings and their value in our
balance sheet. The exchange rates between Rupee and USD and between Rupee and EUR have changed
substantially in recent years and may continue to fluctuate significantly in the future. Although we may in the
future enter into hedging arrangements against currency exchange rate risks, there can be no assurance that these
arrangements will successfully protect us from losses due to fluctuations in currency exchange rates.

37. We have not independently verified certain data in this Red Herring Prospectus.

We have not independently verified data from the Report titled A study on shipbuilding and ship repairing
industry dated March 2017 prepared by CRISIL contained in this Red Herring Prospectus and although we
believe the sources mentioned in the report to be reliable, we cannot assure you that they are complete or reliable.
Such data may also be produced on a different basis from comparable information compiled with regards to other
countries. Therefore, discussions of matters relating to India, its economy or the industries in which we operate
that is included herein are subject to the caveat that the statistical and other data upon which such discussions are
based have not been verified by us and may be incomplete, inaccurate or unreliable. Due to incorrect or ineffective
data collection methods or discrepancies between published information and market practice and other problems,
the statistics herein may be inaccurate or may not be comparable to statistics produced elsewhere and should not
be unduly relied upon. Further, we cannot assure you that they are stated or compiled on the same basis or with
the same degree of accuracy, as the case may be, elsewhere.

38. One of the forms filed by us is not traceable and there are discrepancies in some of the forms filed by us
with the RoC.

We have been unable to locate one of the prescribed forms filed by us with the RoC in respect of the allotment of

35
Equity Shares on June 17, 1988. We have undertaken a RoC search to locate this form as well. While we believe
that we had filed this form with the RoC in a timely matter, we have not been able to obtain a copy of the form,
including from the RoC. We cannot assure you that we will be able to locate this form in the future or that we will
not be subject to any penalty imposed by the relevant regulatory authority in this matter. While there is no
outstanding litigation or regulatory proceeding on the date of this Red Herring Prospectus which requires this
form, there can be no assurance that this form will not be required in a legal proceeding in the future.

Furthermore, there are discrepancies in some of our Form-2 filings with the RoC in the past. We cannot assure
you that we will not be subject to any penalty imposed by the relevant authority in this matter.

39. We may fail to enhance our market position by failing to improve our research and development
capabilities, access new markets and develop new relationships which complement our existing business
operations which may have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of
operations.

As part of our expansion strategy, we intend to enhance our market position through improving our research and
development capabilities and accessing new markets and relationships which complement our existing business
operations. The implementation of such expansion strategy is subject to a number of risks, including, but not
limited to the risks of:

failing to assimilate new technology required for building the new products identified;
failure of new equipment and facilities installed for the expansion;
experiencing difficulties in obtaining regulatory approvals;
being adversely affected by changes in market conditions and demands;
experiencing the diversion of our managements time and attention from other business concerns; and
experiencing difficulties in retaining the key employees of who are essential to successfully managing those
businesses.

If any of these uncertainties materializes, it may have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and
results of operations.

40. Failure or delays in obtaining required certification from classification societies may cause delays in our
delivery schedules and disruptions in our business.

We are required to construct our vessels in accordance with contractual specifications and requirements and the
rules and regulations of the classification societies. Depending on the requirements of our customers, we need to
obtain certification from a particular classification society that is allowed to conduct statutory surveys on behalf
of the register of shipping subject to the latters authorisation for each vessel. The classification society may refuse
to allow us to use the certificate if we fail to resolve issues it raises. As a result, we may experience delays and
disruptions in our shipbuilding process which may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results
of operations.

41. Our ability to pay dividends in the future will depend on number of factors, including, our profit after tax
for the fiscal year, utilisation of the profit after tax towards reserves, our future expansion plans and
capital requirements, our financial condition, our cash flows and applicable taxes, including dividend
distribution tax payable by our Company, and the payments shall be subject to the CPSE Capital
Restructuring Guidelines.

Our ability to pay dividends in the future will depend on number of factors, including our profit after tax for the
fiscal year, utilisation of the profit after tax towards reserves, our future expansion plans and capital requirements,
our financial condition, our cash flows and applicable taxes, including dividend distribution tax payable by our
Company. Any future determination as to the declaration and payment of dividends will be at the discretion of
our Board and subsequent approval of shareholders and will depend on factors that our Board and shareholders
deem relevant. We may decide to retain all our earnings to finance the development and expansion of our business
and, therefore, may not declare dividends on our Equity Shares. We cannot assure you that we will be able to pay
dividends in the future.

36
In accordance with the CPSE Capital Restructuring Guidelines, our Company is required to pay a minimal annual
dividend of 30% of its PAT or 5% of its net worth, whichever is higher, unless an exemption is provided in
accordance with this guideline. For further details, see Dividend Policy on page 174.

42. If we are unable to establish and maintain an effective system of internal controls and compliances our
business and reputation could be adversely affected.

We manage regulatory compliance by monitoring and evaluating our internal controls, and ensuring that we are
in compliance with all relevant statutory and regulatory requirements. However, there can be no assurance that
deficiencies in our internal controls and compliances will not arise, or that we will be able to implement, and
continue to maintain, adequate measures to rectify or mitigate any such deficiencies in our internal controls, in a
timely manner or at all. As we continue to grow, there can be no assurance that there will be no other instances of
such inadvertent non-compliances with statutory requirements, which may subject us to regulatory action,
including monetary penalties, which may adversely affect our business and reputation.

43. Invocation of refund guarantees by our customers could impact our results of operation and we may face
potential liabilities from lawsuits or claims by customers in the future.

Although there have not been any invocation of refund guarantees by our customers in the past, cancellation or
delays in accepting of orders by our clients may lead to invocation of refund guarantees.

Pursuant to the terms of our existing shipbuilding contracts, we are required to provide advance and progress
payment guarantees issued by a financial institution acceptable to our customers in respect of each instalment of
the contract price that is paid to us by our customers. If the customer rejects the vessel upon sea trial or the
contract is terminated by the customer under certain circumstances, the customer has the right to invoke such
refund guarantees and the entire amount that has been paid by the customer to us may become payable together
with interest. If the refund guarantees are invoked by a customer, we would be required to repay these amounts
to the financial institution which furnished such guarantees.

EXTERNAL RISK FACTORS

44. Public companies in India, including us, are required to compute Income Tax under the Income
Computation and Disclosure Standards (the ICDS). The transition to ICDS in India is very recent and
we may be negatively affected by such transition.

The Ministry of Finance has issued a notification dated March 31, 2015 notifying ICDS which creates a new
framework for the computation of taxable income. Subsequently, the Ministry of Finance, through a press release
dated July 6, 2016, deferred the applicability of ICDS from April 1, 2015 to April 1, 2016 and is applicable from
Fiscal 2017 onwards and will have impact on computation of taxable income for Fiscal 2017 onwards. ICDS
deviates in several respects from concepts that are followed under general accounting standards, including Indian
GAAP and Ind AS. There can be no assurance that the adoption of ICDS will not adversely affect our business,
results of operations and financial condition.

45. The GoI has implemented a new national tax regime by imposing GST. We are not in a position to quantify
the impact of this development at this stage due to the limited information currently available in the public
domain. If we are taxed at a higher rate under the GST regime, our financial condition and results of
operations may be adversely affected.

The GoI has implemented a comprehensive national goods and services tax (GST) regime with effect from July
1, 2017 that will combine taxes and levies by the Central and State Governments into a unified rate structure.
Several provisions of the GST regime are currently ambiguous and we may have to change and adapt our systems
and such changes might have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of
operations. Any such future increases or amendments may affect the overall tax liability of Indian companies and
may result in significant additional taxes becoming payable.

46. Significant differences exist between Ind AS and Indian GAAP on one hand and other accounting
principles, such as US GAAP and IFRS on the other, which may be material to investors assessments of
our financial condition.

Our Company is required to prepare annual and interim financial statements under Indian Accounting Standards

37
(Ind AS) from periods beginning April 1, 2016 as required under Section 133 of the Companies Act 2013 read
with Circular SEBI/HO/CFD/DIL/CIR/P/2016/47 dated March 31, 2016. We have not attempted to quantify the
impact of US GAAP or IFRS on the financial data included in this Red Herring Prospectus, nor do we provide a
reconciliation of our financial statements to those of US GAAP or IFRS. US GAAP and IFRS differ in significant
respects from Ind AS and Indian GAAP. Accordingly, the degree to which the Ind AS and Indian GAAP financial
statements, which are restated as per SEBI ICDR Regulations included in this Red Herring Prospectus will provide
meaningful information is entirely dependent on the readers level of familiarity with Indian accounting practices.
Any reliance by persons not familiar with Indian accounting practices on the financial disclosures presented in
this Red Herring Prospectus should accordingly be limited.

47. The exit by the UK from the European Union has and could further impact global financial markets which
could in turn adversely affect the trading prices of our Equity Shares.

The exit by the UK from the European Union (EU) may impact the trading prices of our Equity Shares after
listing. As a result of the referendum held in the UK on June 23, 2016, which resulted in a vote in favour of the
exit from the EU, the global financial markets have experienced significant volatility and may continue to
experience volatility. In addition, the UK and member countries in the EU may face increased economic and
financial volatility. Such economic and financial volatility may further impact global financial markets, which
may adversely affect the trading prices of our Equity Shares.

48. We may be affected by competition law in India and any adverse application or interpretation of the
Competition Act could in turn adversely affect our business.

The Competition Act was enacted for the purpose of preventing practices that have or are likely to have an adverse
effect on competition in India and has mandated the CCI to separate such practices. Under the Competition Act,
any arrangement, understanding or action, whether formal or informal, which causes or is likely to cause an
appreciable adverse effect on competition is void and attracts substantial penalties.

Further, any agreement among competitors which, directly or indirectly, involves determination of purchase or
sale prices, limits or controls production, or shares the market by way of geographical area or number of
subscribers in the relevant market is presumed to have an appreciable adverse effect in the relevant market in India
and shall be void. The Competition Act also prohibits abuse of a dominant position by any enterprise. On March
4, 2011, the Central Government notified and brought into force the combination regulation (merger control)
provisions under the Competition Act with effect from June 1, 2011. These provisions require acquisitions of
shares, voting rights, assets or control or mergers or amalgamations that cross the prescribed asset and turnover
based thresholds to be mandatorily notified to, and pre-approved by, the CCI. Additionally, on May 11, 2011, the
CCI issued the Competition Commission of India (Procedure for Transaction of Business Relating to
Combinations) Regulations, 2011, as amended, which sets out the mechanism for implementation of the merger
control regime in India.

The Competition Act aims to, among other things, prohibit all agreements and transactions which may have an
appreciable adverse effect in India. Consequently, all agreements entered into by us could be within the purview
of the Competition Act. Further, the CCI has extra-territorial powers and can investigate any agreements, abusive
conduct or combination occurring outside of India if such agreement, conduct or combination has an appreciable
adverse effect in India. However, the impact of the provisions of the Competition Act on the agreements entered
into by us cannot be predicted with certainty at this stage. We are not currently party to any outstanding
proceedings, nor have we received notice in relation to non-compliance with the Competition Act or the
agreements entered into by us. However, if we are affected, directly or indirectly, by the application or
interpretation of any provision of the Competition Act, or any enforcement proceedings initiated by the CCI, or
any adverse publicity that may be generated due to scrutiny or prosecution by the CCI or if any prohibition or
substantial penalties are levied under the Competition Act, it would adversely affect our business, financial
condition, results of operations and prospects.

49. Changing laws, rules and regulations and legal uncertainties, including adverse application of tax laws
and regulations, may adversely affect our business, results of operations and cash flows.

Our business, results of operations and cash flows could be adversely affected by unfavourable changes in or
interpretations of existing, or the promulgation of new laws, rules and regulations applicable to our business and
operations.

38
There can be no assurance that the GoI may not implement new regulations and policies which will require us to
obtain approvals and licenses from the GoI or other regulatory bodies or impose onerous requirements and
conditions on our business and operations. Any such changes and the related uncertainties with respect to the
implementation of the new regulations may have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and cash
flows. In addition, we may have to incur capital expenditures to comply with the requirements of any new
regulations, which may also affect our results of operations and cash flows. See Regulations and Policies on
page 139 for details of the laws, rules and regulations currently applicable to us.

The regulatory and policy changes, including the instances mentioned below, may adversely affect our business,
results of operations, financial condition and prospects, to the extent that we are unable to suitably respond to and
comply with any such changes in applicable law and policy.

Further, the General Anti Avoidance Rules (GAAR) are proposed to be effective from April 1, 2017. The tax
consequences of the GAAR provisions being applied to an arrangement could result in denial of tax benefits
among other consequences. In the absence of any precedents on the subject, the application of these provisions is
uncertain. If the GAAR provisions are made applicable to our Company, it may have an adverse tax impact on us.

50. Our business is substantially affected by prevailing economic, political and others prevailing conditions
in India.

Our Company is incorporated in India, and almost all our assets and employees are located in India. As a result,
we are highly dependent on prevailing economic conditions in India and our results of operations are significantly
affected by factors influencing the Indian economy. Factors that may adversely affect the Indian economy, and
hence our results of operations, may include:

any increase in Indian interest rates or inflation;

any exchange rate fluctuations;
any scarcity of credit or other financing in India, resulting in an adverse impact on economic conditions in
India and scarcity of financing of our developments and expansions;
prevailing income conditions among Indian consumers and Indian corporations;
volatility in, and actual or perceived trends in trading activity on, Indias principal stock exchanges;
changes in Indias tax, trade, fiscal or monetary policies;
political instability, terrorism or military conflict in India or in countries in the region or globally, including
in Indias various neighbouring countries;
occurrence of natural or man-made disasters;
prevailing regional or global economic conditions, including in Indias principal export markets;
any downgrading of Indias debt rating by a domestic or international rating agency;
financial instability in financial markets; and
other significant regulatory or economic developments in or affecting India or its natural gas sector.

Any slowdown or perceived slowdown in the Indian economy, or in specific sectors of the Indian economy, could
adversely impact our business, results of operations and financial condition and the price of the Equity Shares.

51. Holders of Equity Shares may be restricted in their ability to exercise pre-emptive rights under Indian law
and thereby suffer future dilution of their ownership position.

Under Section 62 of the Companies Act, a company incorporated in India must offer its equity shareholders pre-
emptive rights to subscribe and pay for a proportionate number of equity shares to maintain their existing
ownership percentages prior to issuance of any new equity shares, unless the pre-emptive rights have been waived
by the adoption of a special resolution by holders of three-fourths of the equity shares voting on such resolution.

However, if the laws of the jurisdiction that you are in do not permit the exercise of such pre-emptive rights
without our filing an offering document or a registration statement with the applicable authority in such
jurisdiction, you will be unable to exercise such pre-emptive rights. If we elect not to file an offering document or

39
a registration statement, the new securities may be issued to a custodian, who may sell the securities for your
benefit. The value such custodian receives on the sale of any such securities and the related transaction costs
cannot be predicted. To the extent that you are unable to exercise pre-emptive rights available in respect of the
equity shares, your proportional interests in our Company may be reduced by the new equity shares that are issued
by our Company.

52. Natural disasters, acts of war, political unrest, epidemics, terrorist attacks or other events which are
beyond our control, may cause damage, loss or disruption to our business and have an adverse impact on
our business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects.

We generally bear the risk of loss of raw materials or equipment and components in transit after our suppliers ship
the supplies to us. We may face the risk of loss or damage to our properties, machinery and inventories due to
natural disasters, such as snow storms, typhoons and flooding. Acts of war, political unrest, epidemics and terrorist
attacks may also cause damage or disruption to us, our employees, our facilities and our markets, any of which
could materially and adversely affect our sales, costs, overall operating results and financial condition. The
potential for war or terrorist attacks may also cause uncertainty and cause our business to suffer in ways that we
cannot predict. In addition, certain Asian countries, including Hong Kong, China, Singapore and Thailand, have
encountered epidemics such as severe acute respiratory syndrome, or SARS and incidents of avian influenza, or
H5N1 bird flu. Past occurrences of epidemics have caused different degrees of damage to the national and local
economies in India. A recurrence of an outbreak of SARS, avian influenza or any other similar epidemic could
cause a slowdown in the levels of economic activity generally, which may adversely affect our business, financial
condition and results of operations. In the event any loss exceeds our insurance coverage or is not covered by our
insurance policies, we will bear the shortfall. In such an event, our business, financial condition and results of
operations could be materially and adversely affected.

53. We are highly dependent on the growth of India and global trade activities for raw materials such as crude
oil, coal and iron ore.

The commercial shipbuilding industry has traditionally experienced fluctuations in freight and charter rates and
vessel values, depending on factors including the demand for, and supply of, shipping capacity, which in turn has
been largely influenced by global demands for, and supplies of raw materials such as crude oil, coal and iron ore.
Our product offerings are concentrated on IAC, FPVs, PSVs, launch barges and bulk carriers.

The price and supply of crude oil is unpredictable and fluctuates based on events outside our control, including
geopolitical developments, supply and demand for oil and gas, actions by Organisation of the Petroleum Exporting
Countries and other oil and gas producers, war and unrest in oil-producing countries and regions, regional
production patterns and environmental concerns. As a result, an increase in the price of crude oil may adversely
affect our profitability. In the last decade, the prices for crude oil have been increasing as well as volatile. A
significant or sustained increase in the price of crude oil or reduction in supply could increase our operating
expenses and we may not be able to successfully pass on the costs to our customers and have a material adverse
effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

As far as the commercial ships like bulk carriers and PSVs are concerned, it is expected that sustained economic
growth in the India and worldwide would create a growing demand for these raw materials, the prices and volumes
of which have largely determined the growth of the global shipping industry. The expected increase in demand
for crude oil in India and worldwide would necessitate further exploration of new reserves in deep seas, which
would in turn create a demand for offshore support vessels. We cannot assure you that the demand for raw
materials can be sustained or will continue to grow or will not decrease. A decrease in demand in India or globally
may cause a reduction in demand for the bulk carriers, and offshore support vessels which we build and this
decrease may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

54. Our costs may increase due to changes in regulations pertaining to the shipbuilding industry.

The shipbuilding industry is heavily regulated by both Indian and international regulations. Among other things,
the vessels we construct for our customers are required to meet the standards and requirements of the classification
society specified by our customer and the rules applicable to the type and size of vessels promulgated by the
relevant regulatory authorities that may comprise maritime authorities of the country of registry and of nations
which the vessel is likely to trade or transit through, such as the Panama and Suez canals. Furthermore,
construction of certain shipyard facilities is subject to approvals from the Indian government. Due to the rapid
expansion of our business, our existing licenses, permits, authorisations or approvals may not match our growth

40
and we may need to apply for new licenses, permits, authorisations or approvals. For example, we may need
goliath gantry cranes with lifting capacities higher than the existing ones at our shipyard for the construction of
large vessels or customized offshore engineering products. If we cannot obtain the requisite licenses, permits,
authorisations or approvals, we may not be able to construct such new gantry cranes or may be ordered to remove
any such existing facilities.

If Indian or international regulations applicable to the shipping industry become more stringent in the future or
additional regulations or controls requiring the adoption of new construction requirements are introduced that we
cannot satisfy in a cost efficient manner or we are unable to pass any additional costs resulting from these new
requirements to our customers, our costs will increase. Any significant increase in cost due to changes in
regulations in the shipbuilding industry may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of
operations.

55. Any future issuance of our Equity Shares may dilute your shareholdings and sales of our Equity Shares
may adversely affect the trading price of our Equity Shares.

Any future equity issuances by us may lead to the dilution of investors shareholdings in our Company. In addition,
any sales of substantial amounts of our Equity Shares in the public market after the completion of the Issue, or the
perception that such sales could occur, could adversely affect the market price of our Equity Shares and could
impair the future ability of our Company to raise capital through offerings of our Equity Shares. We also cannot
predict the effect, if any, that the sale of our Equity Shares or the availability of these Equity Shares for future sale
will have on the market price of our Equity Shares.

56. Foreign investors are subject to foreign investment restrictions under Indian law, which may adversely
affect the market price of our Equity Shares.

Under the foreign exchange regulations currently in force in India, transfers of equity shares between non-
residents and residents are permitted (subject to certain exceptions) if they comply with inter alia, the pricing
guidelines and reporting requirements specified by the RBI. If the transfer of equity shares is not in compliance
with such pricing guidelines or reporting requirements, or falls under any of the prescribed exceptions, prior
approval of the RBI will be required. Additionally, shareholders who seek to convert the Indian Rupee proceeds
from a sale of equity shares in India into foreign currency and repatriate any such foreign currency from India will
require a no-objection/tax clearance certificate from the Indian income tax authorities. We cannot assure you that
any required approval from the RBI or any other government agency can be obtained in a timely manner or on
any particular terms or at all. Owing to possible delays in obtaining requisite approvals, investors in our Equity
Shares may be prevented from realising gains during periods of price increase or limiting their losses during
periods of price decline.

57. You will not be able to immediately sell any of our Equity Shares you purchase in the Issue on an Indian
Stock Exchange.

Our Equity Shares will be listed on the Stock Exchanges. Pursuant to Indian regulations, certain actions must be
completed before the Equity Shares can be listed and trading may commence. Investor book entry, or demat
accounts, with depository participants in India are expected to be credited within two working days of the date on
which Allotment is approved by the designated stock exchange. Thereafter, upon receipt of final listing and trading
approval from the Stock Exchanges, trading in the Equity Shares is expected to commence within six Working
Days from the date of Bid/Issue closure.

We cannot assure you that the Equity Shares will be credited to investors demat accounts, or that trading in the
Equity Shares will commence, within the time periods specified above.

58. You may be subject to Indian taxes arising out of capital gains on the sale of our Equity Shares.

Under current Indian tax laws, unless specifically exempted, capital gains arising from the sale of our Equity
Shares are generally taxable in India. Any gain realised on the sale of listed equity shares on a stock exchange
held for more than 12 months will not be subject to capital gains tax in India if Securities Transaction Tax (STT)
has been paid on the transaction. STT will be levied on and collected by a domestic stock exchange on which the
equity shares are sold. Any gain realised on the sale of equity shares held for more than 12 months, which are sold
other than on a recognised stock exchange and on which no STT has been paid to an Indian resident, will be
subject to long term capital gains tax in India. Further, any gain realised on the sale of listed equity shares held

41
for a period of 12 months or less which are sold other than on recognised stock exchanges and on which STT has
been paid, will be subject to short term capital gains tax in India. Capital gains arising from the sale of the equity
shares will be exempt from taxation in India in cases where the exemption from taxation in India is provided under
a treaty between India and the country of which the seller is resident. Generally, Indian tax treaties do not limit
Indias ability to impose tax on capital gains. As a result, residents of other countries may be liable for tax in India
as well as in their own jurisdiction on a gain upon the sale of our Equity Shares.

59. GoI will continue to control us post listing of our Equity Shares.

Upon the completion of this Issue, the GoI will hold approximately 101,952,000 Equity Shares, or approximately
75% of our post-Issue paid up equity share capital. Consequently, the President of India, acting through the
Ministry of Shipping, will continue to control us and will have the power to elect and remove our directors and
determine the outcome of most proposals for corporate action requiring approval of our Board or shareholders,
such as proposed five-year plans, revenue budgets, capital expenditure, dividend policy, transactions with other
GoI controlled companies. Under the Companies Act, this will continue to be a public sector undertaking which
is owned and controlled by the President of India. This may affect the decision making process in certain business
and strategic decisions taken by our Company going forward.

60. The interests of the GoI as our controlling shareholder may conflict with your interests as a shareholder.

Under our Articles of Association, the President of India, by virtue of holding a majority of our Equity Share
capital may issue directives with respect to the conduct of our business or our affairs for as long as we remain a
government company, as defined under the Companies Act. The interests of the President of India may be different
from our interests or the interests of other shareholders. As a result, the President of India may take actions with
respect to our business and the businesses of our peers and competitors that may not be in our or our other
shareholders best interests. The President of India could, by exercising its powers of control, delay or defer or
initiate a change of control of our Company or a change in our capital structure, delay or defer a merger,
consolidation, or discourage a merger with another public sector undertaking.

61. Announcements by the GoI or the Kerala Government relating to increased wages for government and
public sector employees will increase our expenses and may adversely affect our financial condition in
the years of implementation.

Department of Public Enterprises (DPE) only related to above has required government enterprises to
implement salary increases for employees below board level executives as determined by the respective boards
and management of the relevant government enterprises within a certain guideline set by the DPE. These
governmental measures increase our labour costs and the next pay revision for non-unionised officers and
employees was due w.e.f. January 1, 2017 and a revision of the wage settlement agreement with unionised
workmen w.e.f. April 1, 2017. Although no further directives have been received from the GoI in relation to this
and no wage negotiations have begun, any announcements by the GoI relating to increased wages for government
and public sector employees will increase our expenses and may adversely affect our operating results and
financial condition.

62. Investors may not be able to enforce a judgment of a foreign court against our Company.

Our Company is incorporated under the laws of India. Our Companys Directors and Key Management Personnel
are residents of India and our assets are located in India. As a result, it may not be possible for investors to affect
service of process upon our Company or such persons in jurisdictions outside India, or to enforce against them
judgments obtained from courts outside India. India has reciprocal recognition and enforcement of judgments in
civil and commercial matters with only a limited number of jurisdictions, which include the United Kingdom,
Singapore and Hong Kong. The United States has not been declared as a reciprocating territory for the purposes
of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908 (Civil Code) and thus a judgment of a court outside India may be enforced
in India only by a suit and not by proceedings in execution. In order to be enforceable, a judgment from a
jurisdiction with reciprocity must meet certain requirements of the Civil Code. The Civil Code only permits the
enforcement of monetary decrees, not being in the nature of any amounts payable in respect of taxes, other charges,
fines or penalties and does not include arbitration awards. Therefore, a final judgment for the payment of money
rendered by any court in a non-reciprocating territory for civil liability, whether or not predicated solely upon the
general laws of the non-reciprocating territory, would not be enforceable in India. Even if an investor obtained a
judgment in such a jurisdiction against us, our officers or directors, it may be required to institute a new proceeding
in India and obtain a decree from an Indian court. However, the party in whose favour such final judgment is

42
rendered may bring a fresh suit in a competent court in India, based on a final judgment that has been obtained in
a non-reciprocating territory, within three years of obtaining such final judgment. It is unlikely that an Indian court
would award damages on the same basis, or to the same extent, as was awarded in a final judgment rendered by a
court in another jurisdiction, if the Indian court believes that the amount of damages awarded was excessive or
inconsistent with public policy in India. In addition, any person seeking to enforce a foreign judgment in India is
required to obtain prior approval of the RBI, to repatriate any amount recovered pursuant to the execution of the
judgment.

63. Rights of shareholders under Indian laws may be more limited than under the laws of other jurisdictions.

Indian legal principles related to corporate procedures, directors fiduciary duties and liabilities, and shareholders
rights may differ from those that would apply to a company in another jurisdiction. Shareholders rights including
in relation to class actions, under Indian law may not be as extensive as shareholders rights under the laws of
other countries or jurisdictions. Investors may have more difficulty in asserting their rights as shareholder in an
Indian company than as shareholder of a corporation in another jurisdiction.

64. Our ability to raise foreign capital may be constrained by Indian law.

As an Indian company, we are subject to exchange controls that regulate borrowing in foreign currencies. Such
regulatory restrictions limit our financing sources for our projects and hence could constrain our ability to obtain
financing on competitive terms and refinance existing indebtedness. In addition, we cannot assure you that any
required regulatory approvals for borrowing in foreign currencies will be granted to us without onerous conditions,
or at all. Limitations on foreign debt may have an adverse effect on our business growth, financial condition, cash
flows and results of operations.

65. QIBs and Non-Institutional Investors are not permitted to withdraw or lower their Bids (in terms of
quantity of Equity Shares or the Bid Amount) at any stage after submitting a Bid.

Pursuant to the SEBI Regulations, QIBs and Non-Institutional Investors are not permitted to withdraw or lower
their Bids (in terms of quantity of Equity Shares or the Bid Amount) at any stage after submitting a Bid. Retail
Individual Investors can revise their Bids during the Bid/Issue Period and withdraw their Bids until Bid/Issue
Closing Date. While our Company is required to complete Allotment pursuant to the Issue within six Working
Days from the Bid/Issue Closing Date, events affecting the Bidders decision to invest in the Equity Shares,
including material adverse changes in international or national monetary policy, financial, political or economic
conditions, our business, results of operation or financial condition may arise between the date of submission of
the Bid and Allotment. Our Company may complete the Allotment of the Equity Shares even if such events occur,
and such events limit the Bidders ability to sell the Equity Shares Allotted pursuant to the Issue or cause the
trading price of the Equity Shares to decline on listing.

Global Shipping Industry

Seaborne Trade

According to a 2016 UNCTAD report, global seaborne trade increased by 2.1% to 10,048 million tonnes in 2015.
Dry bulk cargo comprised the largest share at 54%. Developing economies accounted for the largest share of
seaborne trade, in volume terms, at an estimated 60%. Developing countries have become global manufacturing
centres with growing demand for capital and consumer goods, and are no longer viewed as only suppliers of raw
materials. In terms of a regional comparison, Asia was the largest loading and unloading region, followed by the
Americas, Europe, Oceania and Africa. As of January 2016, the global commercial fleet stood at 90,917 vessels,
totalling 1.8 billion DWT. Dry bulk carriers comprised the largest share at 43.1% followed by the oil tanker
segment with a share of approximately 27.9%.

Fleet

The respective shares of oil tankers and general cargo vessels in the global fleet have declined over the years,
while those of dry bulk carriers and container ships have increased. As of January 2016, the dry bulk carriers, with
a 43% contribution in terms of gross registered tonnage (GRT), was the largest vessel category in the global fleet.
The share of oil tankers, which made up for 50% of the global fleet in 1980, has declined to 28% in 2016. Over
this period, the share of container vessels increased from 2% to 14%, following Chinas manufacturing-led
growth as well as the shipping industrys strategy to reduce costs using economies of scale. The fall in the oil
tanker share was due to a change in the pattern of trade and demand, primarily due to a decline in the refining
capacity in Europe and a corresponding increase in Asia and the Middle East.

45
Indian Shipping Industry

Fleet

The Indian commercial fleet saw an addition of 42 vessels with approximately 0.2 million GRT in 2015. In 2015,
Indias total fleet strength was 1,246 vessels with a GRT of 10.51 million. The majority of the Indian fleet is
deployed for costal trade, with approximately 70% of the registered vessels used for coastal trade, while the
remaining 373 vessels are engaged in overseas trade. However, in tonnage terms, the fleet deployed for coastal
trade is approximately 1.5 million GRT, while that for overseas trade is approximately 9 million GRT.

In terms of GRT, more than half of the fleets tonnage is accounted for by oil tankers. Over the past decade, oil
tankers have continued to account for a majority share.

According to the Indian Ministry of Shipping, the total overseas cargo handled at Indian ports was approximately
879.6 million tonnes in 2014-15. The vessels carrying Indian flags contributed approximately 7.5% of overseas
cargo tonnage. Even as the total overseas cargo handled at Indian ports increased, the contribution of vessels
carrying Indian flags in terms of tonnage declined in absolute terms as well as in percentage terms. Meanwhile,
ships above the age of 20 years comprised over 40% of the Indian fleet, as ship owners preferred to maintain the
existing fleet due to uncertainty in global trade. However, approximately 20% of the ships in the Indian fleet are
below the age of five years, indicating that new vessels have been added during the recent past.

 SUMMARY OF BUSINESS
Overview

We are the largest public sector shipyard in India in terms of dock capacity, as of March 31, 2015, according to
the CRISIL Report. We cater to clients engaged in the defence sector in India and clients engaged in the
commercial sector worldwide. In addition to shipbuilding and ship repair, we also offer marine engineering
training.

As of May 31, 2017, we have two docks dock number one, primarily used for ship repair (Ship Repair Dock)
and dock number two, primarily used for shipbuilding (Shipbuilding Dock). Our Ship Repair Dock is one of
the largest in India and enables us to accommodate vessels with a maximum capacity of 125,000 DWT (Source:
CRISIL Report). Our Shipbuilding Dock can accommodate vessels with a maximum capacity of 110,000 DWT
(Source: CRISIL Report).

We are in the process of constructing a new dock, a stepped dry dock (Dry Dock). This stepped dock will
enable longer vessels to fill the length of the dock and wider, shorter vessels and rigs to be built or repaired at the
wider part. We are also in the process of setting up an International Ship Repair Facility (ISRF), which includes
setting up a shiplift and transfer system.

In the last two decades, we have built and delivered vessels across broad classifications including bulk carriers,
tankers, Platform Supply Vessels (PSVs), Anchor Handling Tug Supply vessels (AHTSs), launch barges,
tugs, passenger vessels and Fast Patrol Vessels (FPVs). We are currently building India's first Indigenous
Aircraft Carrier (IAC) for the Indian Navy. We have also grown our ship repair operations and are the only
commercial shipyard to have undertaken repair work of Indian Navy's aircraft carriers, the INS Viraat and INS
Vikramaditya.

Our diversified offerings to the Indian clients engaged in the defence sector and to clients engaged in the
commercial sector worldwide have allowed us to successfully adapt to the cyclical fluctuations of our industry.
Over the last five Fiscals, the break-down of our average operating revenues is set out below:

Clients engaged in the

Activity Commercial clients
defence sector
Shipbuilding 69.44% 12.68%
Ship repair 10.42% 6.94%
Other operating revenue 0.48% 0.04%

Our current shipbuilding order book includes Phase-II of the IAC for the Indian Navy, two 500 passenger cum
150 ton cargo vessels and two 1,200 passenger cum 1,000 ton cargo vessels for the Andaman and Nicobar
Administration (A&N Administration) and a vessel for one of the Government of India's (GoI) projects.
Our current ship repair order book includes vessels from our key clients.

We recently delivered two Roll-On/Roll-Off (Ro-Ro) vessels to the Kochi Municipal Corporation.

We are a wholly-owned GoI company, incorporated on March 29, 1972 and were conferred the 'Miniratna' status
in 2008, by the Department of Public Enterprises, GoI. Our shipyard is strategically located along the west coast
of India, midway on the main sea route connecting Europe, West Asia and the Pacific Rim, a busy international
maritime route. In addition, our shipyard is located close to the Kochi port as well as to offshore oil fields on the
western coast of India and relatively close to the Middle East.

We commenced our operations in 1975 and have over four decades of experience in shipbuilding. We have in
the past delivered two of Indias largest double hull oil tankers, each of 92,000 DWT (Source: CRISIL Report)
to the Shipping Corporation of India (SCI). Over the years, we have successfully responded to fluctuations in
the shipbuilding requirements of the markets we operate in and have evolved from building bulk carriers to
building smaller and more technically sophisticated vessels such as PSVs and AHTSs. We have worked with
several leading technology firms in our industry including Rolls Royce Marine (Norway), and GTT (Gaztransport
& Technigaz) SA (GTT). We believe this has added to our credibility in the international markets. Our key
shipbuilding clients include the Indian Navy, the Indian Coast Guard and the SCI. We have also exported 45
ships to various commercial clients outside India such as NPCC, the Clipper Group (Bahamas) and Vroon
Offshore (Netherlands) and SIGBA AS (Norway).

47
We began our ship repair operations in 1978 and have undertaken repairs of various types of vessels including
upgradation of ships of the oil exploration industry as well as periodical maintenance, repairs and life extension
of ships. Our shipyard has, over the years, developed capabilities to handle various repair jobs. We have entered
into MoUs with various clients including with the Lakshadweep Development Corporation Limited (LDCL),
Directorate General of Lighthouses and Lightships (DGLL) and the Dredging Corporation of India (DCI)
giving us the opportunity to undertake ship repair work for these organisations on a bulk volume basis. Our key
ship repair clients include the Indian Navy, the Indian Coast Guard, SCI, the Oil & Natural Gas Corporation
(ONGC) and DCI. We have also partnered with Techcross Inc. for technical support, engineering, service
support and sharing of information in relation to the Ballast Water Treatment System (BWTS) products.

Our Marine Engineering Training Institute at Kochi began in 1993, where we conduct marine engineering training
programs. These programs are approved by Director General of Shipping (DGS), GoI. We also operate a
material testing laboratory, which was established in 1972. Our material testing laboratory has been accredited
by the National Accreditation Board for Testing and Calibration Laboratories (NABL) and is one of the leading
laboratories in Kerala in the field of chemical, mechanical and non-destructive testing of various materials
including metals, welds and alloys.

We have several certifications including the ISO 9001:2008 Quality Management System, ISO 14001:2004 -
Environmental Management System and OHSAS 18001:2007 Occupational Health and Safety Management
System. Our listed debentures have been rated AA+ by since 2014 by various agencies including India Ratings
and Research Private Limited (IRRPL) and CARE. We were also adjudged the Shipbuilding Company of the
Year in 2015 by the Gateway Awards. For further details of awards we have received, see History and Certain
Corporate Matters Awards and Recognition on page 147.

Our Company has posted profits continuously in the last five Fiscals. Our total income and PAT (before other
comprehensive income) has increased from `16,604.52 million and `692.82 million respectively, in Fiscal 2015
to `22,085.01 million and `3,121.82 million, respectively, in Fiscal 2017 at a CAGR of 15.33% and 112.27%,
respectively.

Competitive Strengths

We believe we benefit from a number of strengths that together differentiate us from our competitors:

One of India's leading public-sector shipyards catering to both commercial clients as well as clients engaged
in the defence sector with a multitude of offerings for a broad range of vessels across life cycles

We are the largest public sector shipyard in India in terms of dock capacity, as of March 31, 2015, according to
the CRISIL Report. We have catered to both commercial clients and clients engaged in the defence sector
evidenced by our revenues from shipbuilding and ship repair operations in recent Fiscals as set our below:

(in ` million)
Activity Fiscal 2015 Fiscal 2016 Fiscal 2017
Shipbuilding
Clients engaged in the defence sector 12,308.88 15,028.76 13,625.83
Commercial Clients 1,331.69 1,179.35 1,510.90
Total 13,640.57 16,208.11 15,136.73
Ship repair
Clients engaged in the defence sector 537.64 2,818.10 3,788.96
Commercial Clients 1,440.30 822.34 1,647.70
Total 1,977.94 3,640.44 5,436.66
Grand Total 15,618.51 19,848.55 20,573.39

Shipbuilding for clients engaged in the defence sector is complex and time-consuming, whereas commercial
shipbuilding, while relatively less complex, is subject to business cycles. Catering to both commercial clients and
clients engaged in the defence sector has helped us to address these issues relatively better. We are currently
building India's first IAC for the Indian Navy and have recently delivered the last FPV (in a series of 20) to the
Indian Coast Guard prior to the delivery date. We have also built two of Indias largest double hull oil tankers,
each of 92,000 DWT (Source: CRISIL Report) for SCI and recently delivered a large deck cargo cum jacket
launch barge for NPCC.

48
In addition to shipbuilding, we also undertake ship repair for the Indian Navy and repaired about 15 Indian Naval
Ships, on an average in the Fiscals 2014, 2015 and 2016, respectively where our scope of work varied from
routine to complex repairs. We also recently completed refits of INS Aditya, INS Sukanya, INS Shardul, INS
Viraat and INS Vikramaditya for the Indian Navy. We have also undertaken major revamping and refurbishing
of oil rigs involving steel renewal, up-gradation of drilling, cementing, mechanical, HVAC and piping systems
in almost all the major offshore vessels and rigs of ONGC.

Our top customers include the Indian Navy and the Indian Coast Guard. These top two customers together
accounted for 82.43%, 89.92% and 84.57% of our revenue from operations in Fiscals 2015, 2016 and 2017,
respectively. The Indian Navy has praised us for our high production standards, quality construction and timely
delivery. (Source: https://www.indiannavy.nic.in/content/vikrant-navys-first-indigenous-aircraft-carrier-
launched)

Our Marine Engineering Training Institute began in 1993 and we facilitate the DGS approved GME residential
course for mechanical and naval architect engineering graduates. We also have a NABL accredited material testing
laboratory.

We believe that our diverse experience and multiple offerings put us in a good position to benefit from the recent
Make in India initiative introduced by the GoI pursuant to which a steady pipeline of future orders and
opportunities is expected from Indian clients engaged in the defence sector as well as the Indian PSUs.

Modern facilities and infrastructure and integrated capabilities to deliver quality products and services

We believe that the state of the art infrastructure and facilities available at our shipyard combined with our vast
expertise give us a significant edge over our domestic peers. While our proposed Dry Dock project will be set up
on our existing shipyard premises, the ISRF will be set up on land near our shipyard leased from the Cochin Port
Trust (CoPT). We believe that our modern facilities and infrastructure and integrated capabilities have helped
us built a strong reputation for quality and timely delivery over decades of doing business with both our Indian
and international clients.

Our integrated shipbuilding infrastructure at the shipyard allows us to undertake structural, machinery and
electrical design and to prepare detailed production engineering drawings. During the shipbuilding design process
3D hull, piping and electrical models are created, ensuring optimum, error free ship designs. Inputs for various
NC equipment are also generated on these systems. Quay III, which is used for shipbuilding, has a length of 630m
and has two LLTT cranes with capacities of 40T and 20T, respectively.

Our ship repair facilities include our Ship Repair Dockmeasuring 270m x 45m x 12m that enables us to undertake
the repair of vessels with a maximum capacity of 125,000 DWT. Our shipyard currently has one of the largest
ship repair capacities among the Indian public sector shipyards (Source: CRISIL Report). Additionally, we have
two quays, Quay I with a length of 290m and a 15T cranage and Quay II with a length of 208m and a 10T cranage.
Both quays have LLTT cranes.

Order book with a strong customer base of reputable ship owners and marquee clients

Shipbuilding

We have built a variety of vessels ranging from bulk carriers, tankers and passengers ships to offshore support
vessels and port crafts. In the last five years, we have built and delivered over 35 vessels to clients worldwide.
We have built and repaired vessels and provided other offshore project services to some of the biggest corporates,
both in India and globally. Our Indian clients include the Indian Navy, the Indian Coast Guard, SCI, ONGC,
DGLL and DCI. Our key foreign clients include NPCC, the Clipper Group, Vroon and SIGBA AS.

We are currently building India's first IAC for the Indian Navy. We are also currently constructing two 500
passenger cum 150 ton cargo vessels and two 1200 passenger cum1000 ton cargo vessels for the A&N
Administration and a vessel for one of GoI's projects.

Ship repair

We commenced ship repair operations in 1978 and have, over the years, developed adequate capabilities to handle

49
complex and sophisticated repair jobs. We have also entered into special MoU arrangements to enhance our ship
repair business. For example, we repaired LDCL and DCI vessels under our respective MoUs with them.

In Fiscal 2016, major repair works for commercial clients included work on the GTV Samudra Sarvekshak and
the WSV Samudhra Nidhi for SCI, and on the Dredge VIII and Dredge XIX for the DCI and MV Kavaratti for
LDCL. In the last Fiscal, we believe our docks were running at full capacity due to which we had to turn away
certain new requests.

Competitive cost structure and efficient operations

We believe that we offer our clients competitive cost structures for their shipbuilding and ship repair needs. We
have implemented measures to help ensure that our operations run efficiently. We seek to achieve optimum
utilisation of our full capacity through effective production planning and scheduling and have delivered or are in
the process of delivering all the vessels we have contracted for, including in certain cases, delivery ahead of
schedule such as some of the FPVs for the Indian Coast Guard and deck cargo cum launch barge for NPCC. In
some cases where we were able to deliver the vessels ahead of schedule to our customers, we were able to secure
additional bonuses over and above the cost of the ship including from the Clipper Group as well as repeat orders
from satisfied clients. We are committed to the timely delivery of vessels and place great emphasis on the quality
of our construction. This helps to minimise the need to undertake rectification works for defects or non-
compliance with our customers specifications, and reduces our exposure to liquidated and other damages under
our shipbuilding contracts.

We believe we have achieved further cost savings through our cost management activities. We operate an efficient
system of sub-contracting which aids multiple repair projects and production planning. For example, rather than
maintaining a large number of full time employees, we employ a significant number of contract labour workers,
enabling us to keep the size of our workforce flexible based on our requirements. As of May 31, 2017, we had
1,824 full time employees, two employees on deputation from other government organisations and 612 contract
employees. As of May 31, 2017, we also employed about 3,178 sub-contract workers on a daily basis.We also
seek to manage the cost of the engines and other equipment used in our vessels by obtaining quotes from our
approved vendors and the cost of our raw materials and components through the selection of suppliers and
subcontractors based on several criteria, including the pricing and the quality of their products and reliability of
their services. Generally, we avoid buying from intermediaries and prefer to deal directly with manufacturers so
as to form long-term relationships with these manufacturers, and wherever possible, obtain better pricing terms.

Our shipyard is strategically located along the west coast of India, on the main sea route connecting the Persian
Gulf to Asia, and is approximately 610 nautical miles from Mumbai, a busy international maritime route that is
conveniently located for ships travelling on this route in need of repair. In addition, our shipyard is located close
to the offshore oil fields on the western coast of India and relatively close to the Middle East, which we believe,
will be an advantage in tapping the offshore rig market. Due to our shipyard's proximity to the Kochi port, we
are well-positioned to benefit from the ports infrastructure facilities such as its approach channel and navigation
facilities.

Led by a dedicated board, long serving and experienced senior management backed by a strong pool of
experienced professionals

We are one of India's leading shipyards, making us an employer of choice and providing a better incentive to our
management to continue to pursue excellence in our businesses. Each of our key management staff has, on
average, more than 25 years of experience in the industry and has been with our Company for an average of two
decades. Some of our senior management have grown within our organisation from trainee positions to head their
respective departments. We believe that our organisational culture and experienced board and senior management
have been instrumental in helping us achieve a low cost structure, continuous profit margins, efficient operations,
short delivery schedules, relatively lower attrition and fewer employee disputes.

We have a large pool of experienced naval architects, engineers and draftsmen. We believe that our employees
are instrumental to our success including for the quality of our products and services and our ability to operate in
a cost-efficient manner. We focus on the overall development of our employees through the implementation of
training programmes to enhance employee loyalty, reduce attrition rates, improve skills and service standards and
increase productivity. For example, we provide regular in-house training for our employees such as skill
development programs for various specialised tasks. We also have a MoU with Cochin University of Science and
Technology (CUSAT) that provides two seats for their M. Tech degree course in marine engineering annually

50
for executives or officers sponsored by us.

Continuous profits leading to robust financial performance

We are a profitable and dividend paying shipyard. Our Company has posted profits continuously in the last five
Fiscals. Our total income and PAT (before other comprehensive income) have increased from `16,604.52 million
and `692.82 million, respectively, in Fiscal 2015 to `22,085.01 million and `3,121.82 million, respectively, in
Fiscal 2017 at a CAGR of 15.33%, and 112.27%, respectively. Additionally, we have continuously delivered
positive RoE margins over the last five Fiscals.

We paid dividends to our shareholders at rates of 15%, 15%, 15% and 76.50% in Fiscals 2013, 2014, 2015 and
2016, respectively and declared dividend of 89.70% in Fiscal 2017. Our strong liquidity position in terms of total
cash and bank balance of 20,032.06 million as of June 30, 2017, enables us to continue to stay invested in our
business and to consistently pay our suppliers on time and benefit from supplier goodwill.

The strength of our balance sheet in terms of liquidity and indebtedness provides us with a number of competitive
advantages, such as lower finance costs and better financial terms for our future borrowing needs. As of June 30,
2017, we had fund based indebtedness in the form of tax free infrastructure bonds amounting to `1,230.00 million
(excluding interest due on these bonds). Apart from this, our Company had availed of non-fund based facilities
of `2,152.92 million, USD 2.04 million and EUR 4.69 million. Our listed debentures has been rated AA+ since
2014 by various agencies including IRRPL and CARE.

Our Strategies

Our objective is to enhance our market position by expanding our capabilities, capitalising on opportunities both
in domestic and international markets in our industry and to enhance our competitiveness. Our business strategies
are:

Expand our capabilities through our proposed Dry Dock and International Ship Repair Facility

We are in the process of developing our Dry Dock and ISRF. Once developed, we believe that these new
facilities will expand our existing capabilities significantly and help us build and repair a broader variety of
vessels including new generation aircraft carriers and oil rigs, which are expected to be key growth drivers in
the short to near long term. The process of setting up an ISRF will allow us to undertake repair of a broader
range of vessels.

Dry Dock

In addition to our existing dock, we are in the process of building a Dry Dock at a total estimated cost of `17,989.91
million. The length of the Dry Dock will be greater than the length of our existing docks. The larger size of our
proposed Dry Dock will enable us to build and repair ships of higher capacity and large naval vessels such as
aircraft carriers. Further, the greater width of our Dry Dock will also enable us to undertake building and repair
of rigs, within our shipyard.

In relation to our proposed Dry Dock, HaskoningDHV India Private Ltd has prepared a Detailed Project Report
dated October 5, 2016. We have also completed the Environmental Impact Assessment study and have obtained
environmental clearance from the MoEFCC which is subject to certain conditions. We have also received the
National Wildlife Boards clearance on April 25, 2017. For more details, see Risk Factors The environmental
clearances for our proposed Dry Dock and ISRF project is subject to the final order in the matter of Goa
Foundation v. Union of India and amongst others for ISRF project, the prior clearance of the Standing Committee
of the National Board for Wildlife. on page 22 and see Governmental and Other Approvals on page 382.

ISRF

We entered into an agreement for development and operation of an international ship repair facility dated
December 24, 2012 with Cochin Port Trust under which we are in process of setting up an ISRF which inter-alia
contains provisions for liquidated damages, indemnity and termination. For the ISRF, we have leased
approximately 8.12 hectares of land and 15 hectares of water body from CoPT, including their existing ship-repair
facility, for a period of 30 years pursuant to the lease deed dated April 12, 2013. Since then, we have begun using
the existing dry dock and allied facilities in the leased area for carrying out ship repair in a limited way.

51
The ISRF will comprise of a ship-lift, transfer system and allied facilities to be built at an estimated investment
of ` 9,694.1 million. We have appointed a consortium of Inros Lackner SE and Tata Consulting Engineers Limited
as project consultants. A detailed project report was prepared by the project consultants and received the GoI
approval on May 19, 2016. We have also obtained the environmental clearance for the project from the MoEFCC.
The environment clearance is subject to certain conditions including obtaining prior clearance of the standing
committee of the National Wildlife Board. For more details, see Risk Factors The environmental clearances
for our proposed Dry Dock and ISRF project is subject to the final order in the matter of Goa Foundation v.
Union of India and amongst others for ISRF project, the prior clearance of the Standing Committee of the National
Board for Wildlife. on page 22 and see Governmental and Other Approvals on page 382.

Build a strong order book by bidding vigorously for projects to be awarded by the Indian PSUs and defence
sector pursuant to Make in India initiative

We believe we are well-positioned to benefit from the recent Make in India initiative pursuant to which the GoI
is keen to encourage defence manufacturing in India. Policy initiatives such as granting infrastructure status to
shipbuilding, granting right of first refusal to Indian shipyards for shipbuilding and ship repair work of the Indian
PSUs and support through the new financial assistance scheme are expected to provide a steady pipeline of orders
and become key drivers of growth.

Our proposed Dry Dock and ISRF will increase our ability to build, repair and service a broader range of vessels
including vessels of larger capacities. As we are one of the very few commercial shipyards to have won defence
orders from the Indian Navy and the Indian Coast Guard in the past, and have been able to deliver successfully
on these mandates, we believe that we are well positioned to take advantage of future orders placed by the Indian
Navy and other Indian PSUs. We believe that we have an advantage over other defence PSUs, as they currently
do not have the capacity to construct certain types of ships especially those of bigger dimensions such as the IAC.

The GoI also plans to promote inland water transportation and coastal shipping. We believe that this will present
several opportunities including building high speed ferry crafts, dredgers, ropax vessels and large capacity
passenger ships. This will create demand for shipbuilding and ship repair services, which we believe we are well
equipped to deliver. For example, we recently bid in a tender floated by Hooghly Dock & Port Engineers Ltd
(HDPEL), a GoI enterprise, for the upgradation, operation, maintenance and management of two of its
shipyards at Salkia and Nazirgunge located at Howrah, West Bengal successfully. The Ministry of Shipping, GoI
approved the formation of a joint venture between our Company and HDPEL on March 29, 2017. Our Board
accorded its approval for incorporating a joint venture company with HDPEL and investing an amount of `220
million as the initial capital in the joint venture company on April 27, 2017. However, the agreements in relation
to this joint venture are yet to be executed.

Continue to enhance our construction quality and delivery time and enhance our price competitiveness in
order to increase our market share

We believe that our emphasis on quality of construction and timely delivery has been a key factor in our ability
to attract new customers and to retain our existing customers. For example, we recently delivered seven FPVs for
the Indian Coast Guard ahead of the contractual delivery schedule. The final FPV (in a series of 20) was delivered
on December 30, 2016, ahead of the scheduled delivery date of March, 2017. We believe that we are achieving
the highest standards in India across in many areas of shipbuilding, such as plate preparation and cutting
processes, block fabrication, hull erection, outfitting, design and engineering, sourcing, procurement, and project
management.

Furthermore, with the rising production cost globally, we believe there will be greater demand for offshore
support vessels and other commercial vessels that are built by shipyards with a competitive cost structure and
which can offer vessels at competitive prices. With our in-house fabrication workshops, we intend to continue to
develop in-house capabilities in various manufacturing processes, thereby enabling us to lower our costs of
production and maintain our price competitiveness. We also believe our operations will benefit from our business
partnerships with firms like GTT.

We believe that continuing to enhance our production planning and sequencing processes and inventory
management will also help us to maintain our cost competitiveness and further reduce the construction period of
ships.

52
Strengthen our market leadership by continuously adding upgraded and new vessel models to our offerings
and expanding customer services

Leveraging our experience in building other vessels, we plan to expand our product offerings. We believe that
we are strong contenders for building the next aircraft carrier for the Indian Navy, due to our unique experience
in constructing such vessels. With this experience we will also be able to bid for other defence projects.
Furthermore, we believe that we are well-positioned to pitch for opportunities in the rig building and repair
business owing to our proximity to offshore locations.

With the construction of our proposed Dry Dock and ISRF, we will also be able to build and repair new vessel
models. We are well-positioned to follow the latest domestic and international standards for our new offerings.
We also plan to expand our operations to cover the entire life cycle of a broader range of vessels.

Continue to leverage our market position and our relationships with customers, suppliers and other business
partners to support our growth and improve our competitiveness

We plan to use our leading position in the Indian shipbuilding and ship repair industry to develop new relationships
with banks, suppliers, universities and colleges, technical schools, classification societies, ship design institutes,
as well as companies in upstream and downstream, oil and offshore services industries, and to create a favourable
environment for our sustainable development.

We plan to further strengthen our long-term cooperation with well-known universities, such as CUSAT, to jointly
provide training, carry out research and development, and develop a potential workforce to support our future
growth. We have also set up a section for the preparation of basic designs to enhance our design capabilities and
to cater to future design requirements.

We believe that these initiatives will also help us in attracting the best talent to Kochi by creating a network of
shipbuilding and ship repair experts and helping Kochi to become as an important center for shipping and related
businesses.

^In accordance with the certificate of Krishnamoorthy & Krishnamoorthy, Statutory Auditors, dated July 19,
2017, as of June 30, 2017, our Company has deployed ` 140.83 million towards setting up of Dry Dock.
$
In accordance with the certificate of Krishnamoorthy & Krishnamoorthy, Statutory Auditors, dated July 19, 2017,
as of June 30, 2017, our Company has deployed ` 317.32 million towards setting up of ISRF.

The fund deployment indicated above is based on current circumstances of our business management estimates,
DD DPR and ISRF DPR. Further, the schedule of estimated utilisation of the Net Proceeds of the ISRF project is
subject to receipt of the prior clearance of the wildlife from the Standing Committee of the National Board for
Wildlife (NBWL clearance). Until receipt of the NBWL clearance, the Net Proceeds assigned for the proposed
ISRF project shall be transferred to a separate bank account and we shall incur all expenditure on the ISRF project
through our internal accruals and hence the schedule of estimated utilisation of the Net Proceeds of the ISRF
project is based on our estimate from our management and may undergo further changes. We may have to revise
the aforesaid estimates from time to time on account of various factors, such as financial and market conditions,
competitive environment of the industry in which we operate, costs of equipments and interest/ exchange rate
fluctuations, receipt of the requisite approvals and other external factors, which may not be within the control of
our management. This may entail rescheduling the proposed utilisation of the Net Proceeds and changing the
allocation of funds including the sources of funds from its planned allocation at the discretion of our management,
subject to compliance with applicable laws.

Subject to applicable laws, in the event of any increase in the actual utilisation of funds earmarked for the objects
of the Issue, such additional funds for a particular activity will be met by way of means available to us, including
from internal accruals and any additional equity and/or debt arrangements. We believe that such alternate
arrangements would be available to fund any such shortfalls. Further, if the actual utilisation towards any of the
objects is lower than the proposed deployment, then such balance will be used for future growth opportunities
including, funding existing objects (if required) and general corporate purposes, subject to applicable laws. In the
event that the estimated utilization out of the Net Proceeds in a fiscal is not completely met, the same shall be
utilized in the subsequent fiscals.

A. Setting up of Dry Dock

Our Company proposes to set up a Dry Dock, to augment its shipbuilding/ ship repair capacity essentially required
to tap the market potential of building specialized and technologically advanced large vessels such as Liquefied
Natural Gas (LNG) vessels, indigenous aircraft carriers of higher capacity, jack up rigs, drill ships, large
dredgers and repairing of offshore platforms and larger vessels. The Dry Dock shall be located at the northern end
of the existing site premises of our Company and accordingly there will be no additional cost, in relation to
lease/purchase of land, for setting up the new Dry Dock. For further details of our property, see Our Business
on page 124.

HaskoningDHV India Private Limited (Dry Dock Project Consultant) has prepared a detailed project report
dated October 5, 2016 (DD DPR) for setting up of a new dry dock within our Companys premises.

The Dry Dock is proposed to be a stepped dock with a minimum clear length of 310 metre, width of 75 metre at
the wider part, and width of 60 metre at the narrower part. The dock depth would be 13 metre with a draught of
up to 9.5 metre. This stepped dock is proposed to be used for enabling longer vessels to fill the length of the Dry
Dock and wider, shorter vessels and maritime equipment such as rigs to be constructed or repaired at the wider

88
part of the Dry Dock.

The cost of development of the Dry Dock was estimated by the Dry Dock Project Consultant to be US$ 265.23
million. (` 17,989.91 million, based on a conversion rate of ` 67.83 for one US$, as on February 6, 2016). This
estimate includes the civil, mechanical, electrical, allied services and equipment associated with the Dry Dock.

construction, temporary entrance cofferdam and the excavation of the dock, piling work, underground substations
and pump room. It is to be noted that these constructions are also dependant on weather and the contractor will be
required to use regular and efficient methods for transporting the excavated material off-site, after which the
construction of pump house including the fitting of mechanical, electrical and control systems shall follow.

B. Setting up of ISRF

A consortium of Inros Lackner SE and Tata Consulting Engineers Limited (ISRF Project Consultant) has
prepared a detailed project report dated May 21, 2015 (ISRF DPR) for setting up of ISRF.

The ISRF project shall be established on 16.90 hectare of land and about 15.6 hectare of water area. Our Company
has leased 8.12 hectare of land and 15 hectare or thereabout of adjoining water body from Cochin Port Trust vide
the lease deed dated April 12, 2013 for a period of 30 years. For further details of the lease and certain risks in

Global Shipping Industry

Seaborne Trade

According to a 2016 UNCTAD report, global seaborne trade increased by 2.1% to 10,048 million tonnes in 2015.
Dry bulk cargo comprised the largest share at 54%. Developing economies accounted for the largest share of
seaborne trade, in volume terms, at an estimated 60%. Developing countries have become global manufacturing
centres with growing demand for capital and consumer goods, and are no longer viewed as only suppliers of raw
materials. In terms of a regional comparison, Asia was the largest loading and unloading region, followed by the
Americas, Europe, Oceania and Africa. As of January 2016, the global commercial fleet stood at 90,917 vessels,
totalling 1.8 billion DWT. Dry bulk carriers comprised the largest share at 43.1% followed by the oil tanker
segment with a share of approximately 27.9%.

Fleet

The respective shares of oil tankers and general cargo vessels in the global fleet have declined over the years,
while those of dry bulk carriers and container ships have increased. As of January 2016, the dry bulk carriers, with
a 43% contribution in terms of gross registered tonnage (GRT), was the largest vessel category in the global fleet.
The share of oil tankers, which made up for 50% of the global fleet in 1980, has declined to 28% in 2016. Over
this period, the share of container vessels increased from 2% to 14%, following Chinas manufacturing-led
growth as well as the shipping industrys strategy to reduce costs using economies of scale. The fall in the oil

104
tanker share was due to a change in the pattern of trade and demand, primarily due to a decline in the refining
capacity in Europe and a corresponding increase in Asia and the Middle East.
Indian Shipping Industry

Fleet

The Indian commercial fleet saw an addition of 42 vessels with approximately 0.2 million GRT in 2015. In 2015,
Indias total fleet strength was 1,246 vessels with a GRT of 10.51 million. The majority of the Indian fleet is
deployed for costal trade, with approximately 70% of the registered vessels used for coastal trade, while the
remaining 373 vessels are engaged in overseas trade. However, in tonnage terms, the fleet deployed for coastal
trade is approximately 1.5 million GRT, while that for overseas trade is approximately 9 million GRT.

In terms of GRT, more than half of the fleets tonnage is accounted for by oil tankers. Over the past decade, oil
tankers have continued to account for a majority share.

According to the Indian Ministry of Shipping, the total overseas cargo handled at Indian ports was approximately
879.6 million tonnes in 2014-15. The vessels carrying Indian flags contributed approximately 7.5% of overseas
cargo tonnage. Even as the total overseas cargo handled at Indian ports increased, the contribution of vessels
carrying Indian flags in terms of tonnage declined in absolute terms as well as in percentage terms. Meanwhile,
ships above the age of 20 years comprised over 40% of the Indian fleet, as ship owners preferred to maintain the
existing fleet due to uncertainty in global trade. However, approximately 20% of the ships in the Indian fleet are
below the age of five years, indicating that new vessels have been added during the recent past.

Global Shipbuilding Industry

The shipbuilding industry comprises construction and modification of ships, offshore vessels, rigs, liquefied
natural gas (LNG) carriers and vessels for clients engaged in the defence sector. The broad categories of ships

105
built are passenger carriers, offshore vessels, dry bulk carriers, tankers (including LNG carriers), container ships
and vessels for clients engaged in the defence sector. On average, it takes 15-18 months to build a conventional
vessel, i.e. a bulk carrier, tanker or container ship, and 28-32 months to construct a LNG vessel, and offshore rig
and support vessel.

Over the past few decades, the shipbuilding industry has shifted from Europe to Asia due to a number of factors
including, cheap labour, competitive manufacturing and steel-making sectors, and state support.

Following factors have enabled China, the Republic of Korea and Japan to dominate the shipbuilding industry:

Typically, a shipyard requires a working capital of approximately 25-35% of the cost of the ship during the
entire construction period. The interest rates presently offered to shipyards in these aforesaid countries are
significantly low.
In addition to the cost advantage that China and South Korea have, their respective governments provide
discounts or subsidies at the time of sale of ships, which represent approximately 5-10% and approximately
15-20% of the total ship cost in case of China and South Korea respectively. This helps shipyards in these
countries to bid at a lower price in international tenders.

In 2015, China, South Korea and Japan, together, accounted for 91% of the global industry (in terms of deliveries),
with China comprising the largest share at 36%, followed by South Korea and Japan at 34% and 21%, respectively.

Order Book Trends

I. Year-wise

In line with falling shipyard capacity and the stretched finances of owners and banks, the global order book
declined for most vessel types in 2015 and 2016. Between 2012 and 2016, the global order book declined at a
CAGR of 7.7%. The order books for container ships, oil tankers, dry bulk carriers and general cargo have declined
46%, 51%, 61% and 82%, respectively from their peak values in 2008 and 2009. According to CRISIL, the
sluggishness was primarily due to a combination of excess supply and low demand, especially in the dry bulk and
container segments.

106
II. Vessel-wise

Dry bulk and oil tankers together account for more than 80% of the global order book. While the share of dry bulk
has seen a downward trend over the four year period from April 2012 to April 2016, the shares of oil tanker and
container ship segments has improved.

During the year to January 1, 2016, the total dry bulk order book declined on account of surplus capacity that still
exists and uncertainties concerning the demand for dry bulk commodities from China. The tanker order book has
remained at a similar level between 2012 and 2015 even as excess capacity and volatility in crude oil prices
persisted, due to a rise in demand on account of oil stockpiling, especially by Asian countries (such as China),
increases in refinery runs, slow expansion in the oil fleet supply, slow steaming and changes in trading pattern.
Over the same period, the LNG order book declined due to oversupply amid persistent fleet additions while charter
rates were high, and the container order book declined due to excess capacity, cascading (ship capacity moved
from main or artery lanes to secondary routes), uncertainty about the future of slow steaming and the alignment
of major container ship operators in four mega-alliances, listed below:

2M - Maersk Line and Mediterranean Shipping Company (MSC);

CKYHE - Cosco Shipping, K-Line, Yang Ming Marine Transport, Hanjin Shipping and Evergreen Shipping
Agency;
G6 - American President Lines (APL), Hapag Lloyd, Orient Overseas Container Line (OOCL), Nippon
Yusen (NYK), Mitsui O.S.K. Lines (MOL) and Hyundai Merchant Marine Co.; and
Ocean Three - CMA CGM, China Shipping (CSCL), United Arab Shipping Company (UASC), Hamburg
Sud (through vessel share).

These alliances have been formed to create economies of scale by sharing space on mega-vessels, which reduce
the operating cost due to their sheer volume.

107
Revenue trends

South Koreas large shipbuilders, Hyundai Heavy Industries Co. and Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering
Co., reported heavy losses in 2015. This was largely because South Koreas shipyards bid aggressively in recent
years for overseas oil rigs and energy platforms to fill their order books and to avoid direct competition with
Chinese shipbuilders, who had the advantage of cheap labour to make low-profit tankers.

The global recession dented overall demand for shipping, thus lowering demand for new ships. A fall in the price
of crude oil resulted in a challenging business environment for global shipbuilders as international oil companies
reduced capital expenditure, and delayed or cancelled orders for drill ships and offshore production facilities.
These factors, along with considerable excess capacity, resulted in a recession in the shipbuilding industry.

Indian Shipbuilding Industry

Overview

Based on the types of ships built, the Indian shipbuilding industry can be broadly categorized as follows:

(i) Large ocean-going vessels catering to overseas as well as coastal trade;

(ii) Medium size specialized vessels such as port crafts, fishing trawlers, offshore vessels, inland and other
smaller crafts and;
(iii) Defence/ naval crafts and vessels for the coast guard.

Sector-wise classification

The Indian shipbuilding industry can be divided into three segments:

(i) Public-sector shipyards [in the commercial segment]: Historically Indias major shipyards have been public-
sector shipyards, which primarily build merchant-class ships and naval vessels. Public-sector shipyards
include Cochin Shipyard, Hooghly Dock & Port Engineers.
(ii) Defence shipyards: Four naval shipyards come under the purview of the Indian Ministry of Defence, namely
Hindustan Shipyard, Mazagon Dock, Goa Shipyard and Garden Reach Shipbuilders & Engineers.
(iii) Private-sector shipyards: The three publicly listed private-sector shipyards are Bharati Defence and
Infrastructure Ltd., ABG Shipyard and Reliance Defence and Engineering (RDEL) Shipyard (formerly
Pipavav). Larsen & Toubro Ltd is another major private sector shipyard. In addition, there are a number of
smaller private shipyards building smaller ships and vessels, including coastal vessels, launch barges, tugs,
patrol ships and fishing ships.

As of March 2015, the private sector accounted for approximately two-thirds of the total shipbuilding order book
in terms of the number of ships with outstanding orders for 199 ships amounting to a combined tonnage of 2,567
thousand DWT. In fiscal 2015, private sector shipyards delivered 24 ships with a combined tonnage of
approximately 98 thousand DWT.

Among public-sector shipyards, key names include Cochin Shipyard, Hindustan Shipyard and Mazagaon Dock.
Large private-sector shipyards include ABG Shipyard, Bharati Defence and Infrastructure Ltd. and RDEL
Shipyard and Larsen & Toubro Shipyard.

108
Capacity Trends

The shipbuilding capacity of public-sector shipyards marginally declined between fiscal 2011 to fiscal 2015. In
fiscal 2015, Goa Shipyard increased its capacity by more than double from 4,500 DWT to 10,000 DWT. The
private-sectors shipbuilding capacity, on the other hand, increased at a CAGR of approximately 3% between
fiscal 2011 and fiscal 2015. The capacity enhancement of the private-sector was due to new shipyards such as
Larsen & Toubro who entered in 2014 with a capacity of 30,000 DWT, Sembmarine Kakinada who started
operations in 2015, with a capacity of 50,000 DWT, and Chidambaranar Shipcare who set up a shipbuilding
facility with a capacity of 3,500 DWT.

109
Shipbuilding capacities of major shipbuilders (as of fiscal 2015) are shown below:

As per a report released by the Ministry of Shipping, within the public sector, Cochin Shipyard possessed a
maximum ship-building capacity of approximately 110,000 DWT, followed by Hindustan Shipyard (80,000
DWT) and Alcock Ashdown Ltd (15,000 DWT), as of fiscal 2015, as shown below.

The private sector holds the largest share of overall capacity of shipyards in India. Among private sector shipyards,
RDEL has a maximum capacity of approximately 400,000 DWT, followed by Bharati Defence and Infrastructure
Ltd. at approximately 70,000 DWT, as of fiscal 2015, as shown below.

110
Shipbuilding capacity of companies by type and size (as of fiscal 2015)

Cochin Shipyard is in the process of expanding its capacity in order to build large ships such as LNG vessels,
large container vessels and new generation aircraft carriers.

Commercial Order book Trends

The shipbuilding order book position declined during fiscal 2014 and fiscal 2015 due to a number of factors such
as persistent excess supply and weak global trade.

111
I. Vessel -wise

The share of dry cargo segment rose significantly in fiscal 2013, mainly because RDEL Shipyards orders were
reclassified from bulk cargo to dry cargo. Between fiscal 2011 and fiscal 2015, the order book of public sector
shipyards was lower than that of private sector shipyards due to the vessels for clients engaged in the defence
sector in their order book. However, execution of the order book of private shipyards remains uncertain due to the
stressed financial position of major shipyards like ABG Shipyard, RDEL Shipyard and Bharati Defence and
Infrastructure Ltd.

According to industry interactions, some orders of commercial vessels placed with private-sector shipyards have
either been cancelled or put on hold. Additionally, the majority of orders of ships for clients engaged in the defence
sector have been placed with the public-sector shipyards.

As of fiscal 2015, Indian shipbuilders had orders for 292 ships, with an aggregate tonnage capacity of 2.68 million
DWT. Of these, 57 ships, with an aggregate capacity of 1.385 million DWT, were export orders. In DWT terms,
domestic orders comprised a greater share of the order book of the public-sector, while the private-sector order
book is more evenly distributed.

Domestic orders contributed a major part of the order book for public-sector in terms of number of ships, however,
the order book was equally shared by domestic and export orders in terms of DWT. Considering the order book
as of March 2015, the average capacity (in DWT) of export orders is more than that of the domestic orders.

The public-sector shipyards were limited in their ability to take up large export orders due to inadequate capacity
and pending orders.

112
As of March 31, 2015 Goa Shipyard and Cochin Shipyard are the only public-sector shipyards who have received
export orders. In the public-sector, Cochin Shipyard has the largest export order book. In the Dry bulk and offshore
segment, ABG Shipyard has the largest domestic order book among private-sector shipyards.

II. Public-sector company-wise

As of March 31, 2015 Hindustan Shipyard has typically contributed approximately half of the public-sectors
order book. However, its order book size (in DWT) saw a sharp decline during fiscal 2014 and remained at similar
level in fiscal 2015. The order book size (in DWT) of Cochin Shipyard and Mazagaon Dock increased marginally
from fiscal 2012 to fiscal 2015. Among public-sector shipyards, the average tonnage (DWT) per ship on order is
highest for Cochin Shipyard followed by Hindustan Shipyard.

III. Private-sector company-wise

The order book of private-sector is largely contributed by two shipyards, ABG Shipyard and RDEL Shipyard.
However, the order books of RDEL Shipyard and ABG Shipyard declined at a CAGR of 7% and 14% respectively,
from fiscal 2012 to fiscal 2015.

113
Commercial Delivery Trends

The number of ships delivered by the private-sector, as well as in DWT terms, declined after fiscal 2012. With
the exception of fiscal 2014, public-sector deliveries outpaced those of private-sector shipyards in DWT terms.
Among public-sector shipyards, GRSB delivered the most ships, in DWT terms, from fiscal 2011 to fiscal 2015.

Defence Order Book Trends

Naval shipbuilding is a sub-segment of the Indian shipbuilding sector. It is characterised by a value addition of
65% during the construction of ships, which is contributed by ancillary industries including steel producers, main
engine builders and equipment suppliers. Growth of the domestic shipbuilding sector, which imports 45% of its
input requirement, can become a significant factor for large-scale indigenisation of heavy-engineering products
and ancillaries.

Traditionally, even as naval ancillary components have been acquired from outside India, the shipbuilding activity
has been carried out indigenously. However, over the years, the Indian government has pursued a policy towards
greater indigenisation of defence equipment.

The domestic defence shipbuilding industry primarily caters to two sub-segments, the Indian Navy and the Indian
Coast Guard. Both Indian Navy and the Indian Coast Guard currently possess a large fleet.

Defence Public-Sector Units (DPSUs) account for the major portion of the scheduled new fleet additions to the
naval fleet. These DPSUs currently have a large order book for ships for clients engaged in the defence sector.
Mazagaon Dock, Goa Shipyard, Garden Reach Shipping & Engineers and Hindustan Shipyard are major PSUs
catering to the defence sector sub-segment. A significant number of orders have been placed with these DPSUs
over the past two years.

In fiscal 2015, Goa Shipyards order book had five offshore patrol vessels and was also nominated to build 12
mine counter measure vessels for `326 billion. Mazagaon Dock is executing orders for three destroyers of project
P15-A, four destroyers of plan 15-B, four frigates of project P17-A, and six Scorpene-class submarines. Cochin
Shipyard is executing the order for one aircraft carrier and a series of fast patrol vessels. Garden Reach Shipping
& Engineers has an order book that includes three stealth frigates under project P-17A, four Anti-Submarine
Warfare Corvettes (ASCs), four Water Jet Fast Attack Crafts (WJFACs) and eight Landing Craft Utilities (LCUs).

114
The order book for the Indian shipbuilding industry is expected to receive a boost on account of the ship
acquisition plans of Indian Navy and Coast Guard. Ship orders for clients engaged in the defence sector are
expected to increase between fiscal 2016 and fiscal 2021, with the Indian Navys and Coast Guards ambitious
plans for a 200-ship fleet each.

The Indian shipbuilding industry is expected to deliver 14,000 to 17,000 DWT by fiscal 2021 through the partial
or full execution of orders for both the Indian Navy and Indian Coast Guard. CRISIL Research expects delivery
of some of the most important orders, such as, Scorpene-class submarines, P15-A, P15-B and P17-A vessels
within this timeframe. Most of these ships are currently at various stages of completion.

Defence Delivery Trends

The defence fleet has seen significant additions from the domestic shipbuilding industry in the past two years.
Goa Shipyard handed over one naval offshore patrol vessel and Mazagaon Dock delivered INS Kochi, the second
ship of plan 15-A. Cochin Shipyard delivered a series of FPVs to the Indian Coast Guard. Cochin Shipyard and
Garden Reach Shipping & Engineers received and executed orders for ships for foreign clients engaged in the
defence sector. The Garden Reach Shipping & Engineers delivered one ASC, INS Kamorta, and also completed
its export order of CGS Barracuda, an offshore patrol vessel to the government of Mauritius. As of fiscal 2016,
Goa Shipyard has an export order book of approximately `12,000 million, comprising patrol vessels and
interceptor boats for Mauritius and the Sri Lankan Navy. Among private shipyards, ABG Shipyard completed its
delivery of one pollution control vehicle to the Indian Coast Guard.

Global Ship-repair Industry

According to a report published by the Ministry of Shipping at the India Maritime Summit 2016, the global ship
repair market is approximately US$ 12 billion. Shipyards in Singapore, Bahrain, Dubai and Middle East account
for a major share of this market. These locations have achieved a dominant position despite higher cost of ship
repair services compared to other Asian countries, largely due to the availability of a skilled workforce and the
latest technology, which allows these shipyards to attract demand from other low cost locations like India,
Malaysia and Indonesia. According to the Ministry of Shipping at the India Maritime Summit 2016, Indian ship
repair industrys market potential is approximately US$1.5 billion (`102 billion).

Indian Ship-repair Industry

Market size

According to the Statistics of Indias Ship Building and Ship Repair Industry, published by the Ministry of
Shipping, the total market size of the Indian ship-repair industry in fiscal 2015 was approximately `5,043 million.
From fiscal 2011 to fiscal 2015, the market size has remained constant except for during fiscal 2013, when it
crossed the `10,000 million level in part due to Mazagaon Docks high value orders. This was an isolated case,
as Mazagon Dock does not typically undertake ship repairing.

The share of the public-sector in the revenues earned through ships repaired is much higher compared to the
private-sector. The average realisation per ship repaired by the public-sector is higher compared to that of the
private-sector.

Market share

115
Cochin Shipyard, accounting for approximately 39% of the total revenues earned in fiscal 2015 through ship-
repair, is the leading shipyard in the ship-repair industry. It is followed by Goa Shipyard with a share of
approximately 20% in the revenues earned in fiscal 2015 through ship-repair. The private-sector shipyards in this
segment are Sembmarine Kakinada, Larsen & Toubro and ABG Shipyard.

In terms of market size, the share of the public-sector remained higher than the private-sector from fiscal 2011 to
fiscal 2015. The number of ships repaired by the public and private-sectors increased at a CAGR of 18% and 52%
respectively, during this period.

Capacity Trends

The public-sector had a largely stable ship-repair capacity between fiscals 2011 and 2015. GSL contributed with
a major capacity addition in fiscal 2015, which more than doubled its capacity from 4,500 DWT to 10,000 DWT.
The ship-repair capacity of the private-sector improved following the commencement of operations of two new
shipyards viz. Larsen & Toubro Ltd with 30,000 DWT and Sembmarine Kakinada with 54,000 DWT capacity.

I. Region-wise

The western coast of India houses almost 60% of the overall ship-repair capacity of the country. As the shipyards
are located along the sea coast, there are no shipyards in northern India. The majority of the shipyards on the
western coast are located in Gujarat, Maharashtra, Kerala and Goa while major shipyards in the east are
concentrated in West Bengal.

II. Company-wise

The public-sector owns nine dry docks and three wet docks. Cochin Shipyard and Garden Reach Shipbuilders &
Engineers have two and five dry docks, respectively. Only Hindustan Shipyard and Garden Reach Shipbuilders
& Engineers have both dry as well as wet docks.

Some shipyards also provide other repairing facilities such as a jetty, shiplift, slipway, submersible ship or
platform and quay. Among private-sector shipyards, ABG Shipyard has two and NN Shipbuilders and Engineers
has three slipways.

Cochin Shipyard had the largest ship-repair capacity within the public sector as of fiscal 2015, followed by
Hindustan Shipyard. Within the private sector, RDEL Shipyard had the largest ship-repair capacity, followed by
Bharati Defence and Infrastructure Ltd, as shown below.

116
III. Port-wise

Kandla, Mumbai, Mormugao, Cochin, V O Chidambaranar, Visakhapatnam, Paradip and Kolkata are the major
ports in India. The Kolkata port has four dry docks, while the rest have one each. The Mormugao and
Visakhapatnam ports have eight workshops each, while the Paradip port has only one. In terms of dimensions,
Mumbai port is the largest. All major ports, except the V O Chidambaranar port, have cranes.

In fiscal 2015, the Mumbai port recorded the highest number of ship-repairs while the Kolkata port had the highest
occupancy of dry docks, among the major ports.

Future outlook

The ship-repair industry is expected to grow at a CAGR of 8 to 10% between fiscal 2016 and fiscal 2021. Indian
ship-repair yards will be driven by greater focus towards diversifying their revenue streams to withstand the
slowdown in ship building.

Indian yards are expected to benefit from the increasing strength of the Indian Navy and the Coast Guards
operational and support fleet, which will drive the repairs business. Moreover, higher indigenisation in ships for
clients engaged in the defence sector are expected to augment the revenue per refit and repair, driving growth and
increasing the proportion of defence repairs over the next five years.

Revenue generated through repairs of foreign vessels is also expected to improve in the wake of service tax
exemptions granted by the central government in 2014 and a reduction of central excise duty on capital goods raw

117
materials and spares used for the repair of ocean going vessels. Indian shipyards are facing increasing competition
from foreign shipyards as their shipbuilding capacities remain underutilised. Also, major Indian shipyards are
sceptical about taking in foreign vessels as the average ticket sizes are lower despite similar capacity requirements.

Key drivers

Strategic positional advantage

Indias strategic position along the east bound and west bound international trade routes offers an opportunity to
cater to vessels plying on these routes. A main container route connecting America and Europe to the East passes
very close to the Indian coastline presenting a major opportunity for repairs.

Capacity additions

Cochin Shipyard is in the process of adding one more dry dock of size 310 x 75/60 x 13 M, which will enable
it to undertake repairs of vessels like LNG carriers, semi-submersibles, jack up rigs, and drill ships.
Full commissioning of the international ship repairing facility at Cochin port with state of the art ship repair
facilities will enable Cochin to position itself as a major ship repair hub. The target is to enhance Cochin
Shipyards ship-repair capability by 70-90 ships per annum.
Phase 3 and 4 of development (the expansion and upgradation of infrastructure at Goa Shipyard) are under
progress. This development is expected to enhance its capabilities for the repair of ships for clients engage in
the defence sector.
The construction of a floating dry dock facility at V O Chidambaranar port is in the feasibility study phase.
This facility would enhance its capacity to carry out underwater repairs of tugs, launch boats and other
watercrafts.
The project to modernise ship repairing facilities at Kolkata dock is expected to improve its capabilities to
service both Indian and foreign vessels. The project is still in the planning stages.
There is a proposal underway for refurbishment of the existing Hughes dry dock at Mumbai port. This project
aims to provide adequate wet berth facilities to complement dry docks to cater to afloat repairs.
In order to create adequate dry docking facilities and maintenance capacities for vessels plying through
Andaman and Nicobar waters, a project to create a ship repair facility (ship lift/slipway) capable of handling
5000 DWT vessels is underway and is in the pre-feasibility stage, according to a report published at the
Maritime India Summit 2016.

Indian Defence Sector

Budgetary allocation trends

118
The Indian budgetary allocation for defence in 2015-16 was `2,467 billion, which is approximately 1.75% of the
countrys GDP. From fiscal 2011 to fiscal 2016, the allocation for defence increased at a CAGR of 9%. During
this period, revenue expenditure remained largely constant while capital expenditure increased at a CAGR of
approximately 11%.

Defence budget (fiscal 2016)

In fiscal 2016, the Indian Army accounted for the highest share of the defence budget followed by the Indian Air
Force and then the Indian Navy, which accounted for approximately 18% of the total defence budget.

Indian Navy

During fiscal 2012 to fiscal 2016, the budgetary allocation for the Indian Navy was in the range of between 14-
17% of the total budget. The allocation to the Indian Navy has declined over the last two years in absolute terms.

Key GoI Initiatives

The Indian government has taken the following key initiatives to develop and promote the domestic shipbuilding
industry:

119
New Shipbuilding Policy (December 2015)

The Indian cabinet approved the new shipbuilding policy in December 2015, granting financial assistance and
infrastructure status to the industry. The government has set aside `40 billion to implement the scheme over the
next 10 years.

Key policy features include:

Granting financial assistance to both state-owned and private shipbuilders on each ship they build, except for
smaller boats and fishing vessels. However, financial assistance given would be scaled down by three
percentage points every three years, starting with 20% in the first three years, down to 11% in the 10th year;
The assistance will be given on the contract price or fair price, whichever is lower;
Both state-owned and private shipyards will get the assistance only after they construct and hand over to the
ship to the buyer;
Indian shipyards will have the right of first refusal for government purchases, implying that even if the
shipyard is not the lowest bidder, an option is provided to the shipyard to match the lowest foreign bid and
secure the contract; and
Granting infrastructure status to the shipbuilding and ship-repair industry, making it entitled to various
government incentives and tax benefits.

Indirect tax incentives (November 2015)

The government issued a notification in November 2015, highlighting the indirect-tax incentives proposed to be
provided to the industry:

Exemption from customs and central excise duties on all raw materials and parts for use in the manufacture
of ships, vessels, tugs and pusher crafts.
Currently, certain specified vessels are exempt from the basic customs duty and central excise duty.
Consequently, for such vessels manufactured in export-oriented units and cleared to the domestic tariff area,
they are not eligible for exemption on raw materials and parts of such vessels. A suitable amendment is being
made to the relevant notifications to provide this exemption, even if such vessels are exempt from the basic
customs duty and central excise/CV duty.
The requirement of manufacture of ships, vessels, tugs and pusher crafts in a custom-bounded warehouse to
avail of the customs and excise-duty exemptions has also been removed. Instead, these exemptions will now
be subject to actual user conditions.
Central excise duty exemption on inputs used in the repair of ocean-going vessels has been granted in the
Union Budget for fiscal 2017.

The financial assistance policy coupled with the exemption from customs and central excise duties on all raw
materials and parts for use in the manufacture of ships, vessels, tugs or pusher crafts will reduce the cost of
manufacturing ships in India, thus improving the competiveness of Indian shipbuilders. However, the impact of
the policy is not great enough to offset weak global commercial demand.

The financial assistance policy of 2015 provides assistance post-delivery of the vessel, as against 30% assistance
on booking the order as per the ship building subsidy scheme 2002, which led to India garnering an approximate
1.2% share of the global order book. In a situation where major private shipyards are facing financial issues owing
to high working capital needs, the new policy might not be as effective.

Following a freight revival in the shipping market, competition from major global shipyards is expected to
intensify to an extent that offsets the excess cost competitiveness gained through financial assistance and tax
exemptions.

National Investment and Infrastructure Fund

Union Finance Minister, Arun Jaitley, announced the creation of a National Investment and Infrastructure Fund
(NIIF) in Union Budget 2015-16, which would receive an annual flow of `20,000 crore. This will enable the trust

120
to raise debt, and in turn, invest in infrastructure finance companies such as IRFC and NHB (National Housing
Bank). The infrastructure finance companies can then leverage this extra equity manifold.

With a view to attracting investments from Qatar under the umbrella of NIIF, a memorandum of understanding
(MOU) was signed with Qatar Investment Authority (QIA) on June 5, 2016. The objective of the MOU is to
facilitate QIA to study investment opportunities in the infrastructure sector in India, develop a framework for the
exchange of information with regard to such investments opportunities, and enable both sides to decide on joint
investments. It will remain in effect for 12 months, during which both parties will discuss and agree on the terms,
principles and criteria for such investments. NIIF shall share with QIA a pipeline of investment opportunities
available in the infrastructure sector in India.

Make in India Initiative

Gas Authority of India has signed contracts to buy LNG from suppliers in the US. Transporting this gas will
require large specialised LNG carriers. As part of the Make in India campaign, the Government of India is keen
that one-third of the total number of ships should be built by Indian shipyards.

Deregulation

The Ministry of Shipping has taken steps to improve the ease of doing businesses, such as:

rescinding 13 obsolete and unnecessary rules under the Merchant Shipping Act. Of these 13 rules, six have
been rescinded and seven have been pre-published before rescindment.
eliminating the requirement for registration of ship repair units with the Directorate General of Shipping. The
Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Commerce and Industry have now been instructed to extend
concessions and facilities to ship repair units without such registration.
allowing re-rolled steel from re-cycling yards and ship breaking units to be certified for use in the construction
of inland barges, river sea vessels (type 1 and 2) and port and harbour crafts, after ascertaining its sourcing
and processing, which will help lower the cost of construction.

Sagarmala Project

According to the national perspective plan, the Sagarmala project aims to transform existing ports and create new
ones with world-class technology and infrastructure. The project is also expected to integrate ports with industrial
clusters and the hinterland through rail, road, inland and coastal waterways. The government is expected to invest
US$16 billion for the projects completion.

The project is expected to tackle underutilised ports by focussing on port modernisation, efficient evacuation, and
coastal economic development. It will also complement the Golden Quadrilateral project and provide sea
connectivity to major industrial centres.

121
Development of Inland Waterways Transport

Inland waterways transport will be an alternative for the existing mode of transportation. This will decongest the
existing modes and bring advantages in the form of fuel and cost savings. The proposed 101 inland waterways
will require an estimated investment of US$5.5 billion over the next two years.

Inland waterways accounts for only 3% of Indias total transport, compared with 47% in China and 44% in the
European Union. The governments initiative to develop inland waterways is a big business opportunity for the
Indian shipbuilding industry in the form of future orders building dredgers and small bulk carrier vessels.

Defence Sector Liberalisation

The Indian government has taken steps to encourage the domestic defence shipbuilding industry. In August 2014,
the foreign direct investment limit was increased from 26% to 49% to cut imports by indigenising defence
production. India is among the top ten defence spenders in the world and such a move to encourage domestic
manufacturing bodes well for Indian shipbuilders with a defence presence.

In line with the Indian governments vision of Make in India, the Indian Navy has prepared a guideline
document, the Indian Naval Indigenisation Plan (INIP) 2015-2030, to enunciate the need for developing various
advanced systems for its platforms. This plan recognises that the industry, including the private-sector, can play
a vital role in meeting the sophisticated needs of the armed forces through cost-effective utilisation of its know-
how and existing infrastructure, in pursuance of the government of Indias vision of Make in India.

The Indian Navy has achieved approximately 90% indigenisation in the FLOAT category and approximately 50
to 60% in MOVE category, depending upon the type of propulsion and in the FIGHT category they have
achieved approximately 30% indigenisation. Some of the major equipment currently imported, which holds much
scope for indigenisation, are weapons, sensors, propulsion systems (especially gas turbines), marine diesel engines
for main propulsion and gear boxes under the MOVE category.

The unavailability of domestic equipment manufacturing ancillary companies hinders Indian shipbuilding
companies as these costs represent approximately 50-55% of the total shipbuilding costs and these materials have
to be ultimately imported. Labour is another major cost for shipbuilding accounting for approximately 10-15% of
the total costs. According to CRISIL, the lower cost of labour in India, compared to China, South Korea and Japan
could aid in competitiveness ahead of increasing levels of indigenisation.

In addition, over the last few years, major private shipyards such as RDEL Shipyard, ABG Shipyard and Bharati
Defence and Infrastructure Ltd, have had to opt for corporate debt restructuring on account of the inherent
disadvantages like the unavailability of cheap raw materials and limited government support compounded by
economic downturn, a decline in global trade and a liquidity crunch.

122
Defence Procurement Policy (DPP 2016)

The new defence procurement policy was introduced in March 2016 to initiate a new procurement regime for
defence equipment. The following are some of the key features:

Buy (Indian-IDDM) Procurement Category: Pursuant to the Make in India initiative in defence production,
DPP 2016 has introduced a new procurement category, Buy (Indian Indigenously-Designed, Developed and
Manufactured), or Buy (Indian-IDDM). In terms of prioritisation, the new category, which would also be
used for procurement of all locally designed and developed items under the revamped Make procedures, is
placed above the existing Buy (Indian) category which, in turn, is placed above the other categories, namely
the Buy and Make (Indian), Buy and Make and Buy (Global).
Under the new category, indigenously designed equipment with a 40% Indigenous Content (IC), or
equipment not necessarily designed in house but having a 60% IC, is intended for procurement from the
domestic industry.
The new DPP has divided the Make projects into two categories, Make-I (Government Funded) and Make-
II (Industry Funded), apart from giving a decisive say to the Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs).
For Make-I projects, the government would lead in funding prototype development by the industry; whereas
for Make-II projects, which are largely confined to import substitution, the industry that would bear the full
costs of development.
Introduction of L1-T1 methodology for award of contracts: In a significant change from the past, DPP 2016
has introduced the L1-T1 methodology for selecting the supplier of military goods under the Buy and Buy
and Make schemes. Under this methodology the final bidder would not necessarily be selected on the basis
of lowest price quoted by the technically compliant vendors (the so-called L1 methodology), but by a
combination of price and superior technology offered by the qualified vendors.
An increase in the offset threshold limit: DPP 2016 has raised the offset threshold limit from `3 billion to `20
billion.

This section should be read in conjunction with Risk Factors,Managements Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations and Financial Statements on pages 18, 334 and 175,
respectively.With effect from April 1, 2016, we are required to prepare our financial statements in accordance
with the Ind AS. Accordingly, our restated financial information for the Fiscals 2017, 2016 and 2015 included in
this Red Herring Prospectus is prepared under the Ind AS while our restated financial information for the Fiscals
2014 and 2013 included in this Red Herring Prospectus is prepared under the Indian GAAP. References to
restated below are to our restated financial information.

Overview

We are the largest public sector shipyard in India in terms of dock capacity, as of March 31, 2015, according to
the CRISIL Report. We cater to clients engaged in the defence sector in India and clients engaged in the
commercial sector worldwide. In addition to shipbuilding and ship repair, we also offer marine engineering
training.

As of May 31, 2017, we have two docks dock number one, primarily used for ship repair (Ship Repair Dock)
and dock number two, primarily used for shipbuilding (Shipbuilding Dock). Our Ship Repair Dock is one of
the largest in India and enables us to accommodate vessels with a maximum capacity of 125,000 DWT (Source:
CRISIL Report). Our Shipbuilding Dock can accommodate vessels with a maximum capacity of 110,000 DWT
(Source: CRISIL Report).

We are in the process of constructing a new dock, a stepped dry dock (Dry Dock). This stepped dock will
enable longer vessels to fill the length of the dock and wider, shorter vessels and rigs to be built or repaired at the
wider part. We are also in the process of setting up an International Ship Repair Facility (ISRF), which includes
setting up a shiplift and transfer system.

In the last two decades, we have built and delivered vessels across broad classifications including bulk carriers,
tankers, Platform Supply Vessels (PSVs), Anchor Handling Tug Supply vessels (AHTSs), launch barges,
tugs, passenger vessels and Fast Patrol Vessels (FPVs). We are currently building India's first Indigenous
Aircraft Carrier (IAC) for the Indian Navy. We have also grown our ship repair operations and are the only
commercial shipyard to have undertaken repair work of Indian Navy's aircraft carriers, the INS Viraat and INS
Vikramaditya.

Our diversified offerings to the Indian clients engaged in the defence sector and to clients engaged in the
commercial sector worldwide have allowed us to successfully adapt to the cyclical fluctuations of our industry.
Over the last five Fiscals, the break-down of our average operating revenues is set out below:

Clients engaged in the

Activity Commercial clients
defence sector
Shipbuilding 69.44% 12.68%
Ship repair 10.42% 6.94%
Other operating revenue 0.48% 0.04%

Our current shipbuilding order book includes Phase-II of the IAC for the Indian Navy, two 500 passenger cum
150 ton cargo vessels and two 1,200 passenger cum 1,000 ton cargo vessels for the Andaman and Nicobar
Administration (A&N Administration) and a vessel for one of the Government of India's (GoI) projects.
Our current ship repair order book includes vessels from our key clients.

We recently delivered two Roll-On/Roll-Off (Ro-Ro) vessels to the Kochi Municipal Corporation.

We are a wholly-owned GoI company, incorporated on March 29, 1972 and were conferred the 'Miniratna' status
in 2008, by the Department of Public Enterprises, GoI. Our shipyard is strategically located along the west coast
of India, midway on the main sea route connecting Europe, West Asia and the Pacific Rim, a busy international
maritime route. In addition, our shipyard is located close to the Kochi port as well as to offshore oil fields on the
western coast of India and relatively close to the Middle East.

We commenced our operations in 1975 and have over four decades of experience in shipbuilding. We have in
the past delivered two of Indias largest double hull oil tankers, each of 92,000 DWT (Source: CRISIL Report)

124
to the Shipping Corporation of India (SCI). Over the years, we have successfully responded to fluctuations in
the shipbuilding requirements of the markets we operate in and have evolved from building bulk carriers to
building smaller and more technically sophisticated vessels such as PSVs and AHTSs. We have worked with
several leading technology firms in our industry including Rolls Royce Marine (Norway), and GTT (Gaztransport
& Technigaz) SA (GTT). We believe this has added to our credibility in the international markets. Our key
shipbuilding clients include the Indian Navy, the Indian Coast Guard and the SCI. We have also exported 45
ships to various commercial clients outside India such as NPCC, the Clipper Group (Bahamas) and Vroon
Offshore (Netherlands) and SIGBA AS (Norway).

We began our ship repair operations in 1978 and have undertaken repairs of various types of vessels including
upgradation of ships of the oil exploration industry as well as periodical maintenance, repairs and life extension
of ships. Our shipyard has, over the years, developed capabilities to handle various repair jobs. We have entered
into MoUs with various clients including with the Lakshadweep Development Corporation Limited (LDCL),
Directorate General of Lighthouses and Lightships (DGLL) and the Dredging Corporation of India (DCI)
giving us the opportunity to undertake ship repair work for these organisations on a bulk volume basis. Our key
ship repair clients include the Indian Navy, the Indian Coast Guard, SCI, the Oil & Natural Gas Corporation
(ONGC) and DCI. We have also partnered with Techcross Inc. for technical support, engineering, service
support and sharing of information in relation to the Ballast Water Treatment System (BWTS) products.

Our Marine Engineering Training Institute at Kochi began in 1993, where we conduct marine engineering training
programs. These programs are approved by Director General of Shipping (DGS), GoI. We also operate a
material testing laboratory, which was established in 1972. Our material testing laboratory has been accredited
by the National Accreditation Board for Testing and Calibration Laboratories (NABL) and is one of the leading
laboratories in Kerala in the field of chemical, mechanical and non-destructive testing of various materials
including metals, welds and alloys.

We have several certifications including the ISO 9001:2008 Quality Management System, ISO 14001:2004 -
Environmental Management System and OHSAS 18001:2007 Occupational Health and Safety Management
System. Our listed debentures have been rated AA+ by since 2014 by various agencies including India Ratings
and Research Private Limited (IRRPL) and CARE. We were also adjudged the Shipbuilding Company of the
Year in 2015 by the Gateway Awards. For further details of awards we have received, see History and Certain

Competitive Strengths

We believe we benefit from a number of strengths that together differentiate us from our competitors:

One of India's leading public-sector shipyards catering to both commercial clients as well as clients engaged
in the defence sector with a multitude of offerings for a broad range of vessels across life cycles

We are the largest public sector shipyard in India in terms of dock capacity, as of March 31, 2015, according to
the CRISIL Report. We have catered to both commercial clients and clients engaged in the defence sector
evidenced by our revenues from shipbuilding and ship repair operations in recent Fiscals as set our below:

Shipbuilding for clients engaged in the defence sector is complex and time-consuming, whereas commercial
shipbuilding, while relatively less complex, is subject to business cycles. Catering to both commercial clients and
clients engaged in the defence sector has helped us to address these issues relatively better. We are currently
building India's first IAC for the Indian Navy and have recently delivered the last FPV (in a series of 20) to the
Indian Coast Guard prior to the delivery date. We have also built two of Indias largest double hull oil tankers,
each of 92,000 DWT (Source: CRISIL Report) for SCI and recently delivered a large deck cargo cum jacket
launch barge for NPCC.

In addition to shipbuilding, we also undertake ship repair for the Indian Navy and repaired about 15 Indian Naval
Ships, on an average in the Fiscals 2014, 2015 and 2016, respectively where our scope of work varied from
routine to complex repairs. We also recently completed refits of INS Aditya, INS Sukanya, INS Shardul, INS
Viraat and INS Vikramaditya for the Indian Navy. We have also undertaken major revamping and refurbishing
of oil rigs involving steel renewal, up-gradation of drilling, cementing, mechanical, HVAC and piping systems
in almost all the major offshore vessels and rigs of ONGC.

Our top customers include the Indian Navy and the Indian Coast Guard. These top two customers together
accounted for 82.43%, 89.92% and 84.57% of our revenue from operations in Fiscals 2015, 2016 and 2017,
respectively. The Indian Navy has praised us for our high production standards, quality construction and timely
delivery. (Source: https://www.indiannavy.nic.in/content/vikrant-navys-first-indigenous-aircraft-carrier-
launched)

Our Marine Engineering Training Institute began in 1993 and we facilitate the DGS approved GME residential
course for mechanical and naval architect engineering graduates. We also have a NABL accredited material testing
laboratory.

We believe that our diverse experience and multiple offerings put us in a good position to benefit from the recent
Make in India initiative introduced by the GoI pursuant to which a steady pipeline of future orders and
opportunities is expected from Indian clients engaged in the defence sector as well as the Indian PSUs.

Modern facilities and infrastructure and integrated capabilities to deliver quality products and services

We believe that the state of the art infrastructure and facilities available at our shipyard combined with our vast
expertise give us a significant edge over our domestic peers. While our proposed Dry Dock project will be set up
on our existing shipyard premises, the ISRF will be set up on land near our shipyard leased from the Cochin Port
Trust (CoPT). We believe that our modern facilities and infrastructure and integrated capabilities have helped
us built a strong reputation for quality and timely delivery over decades of doing business with both our Indian
and international clients.

Our integrated shipbuilding infrastructure at the shipyard allows us to undertake structural, machinery and
electrical design and to prepare detailed production engineering drawings. During the shipbuilding design process
3D hull, piping and electrical models are created, ensuring optimum, error free ship designs. Inputs for various
NC equipment are also generated on these systems. Quay III, which is used for shipbuilding, has a length of 630m
and has two LLTT cranes with capacities of 40T and 20T, respectively.

Our ship repair facilities include our Ship Repair Dockmeasuring 270m x 45m x 12m that enables us to undertake
the repair of vessels with a maximum capacity of 125,000 DWT. Our shipyard currently has one of the largest
ship repair capacities among the Indian public sector shipyards (Source: CRISIL Report). Additionally, we have
two quays, Quay I with a length of 290m and a 15T cranage and Quay II with a length of 208m and a 10T cranage.
Both quays have LLTT cranes.

Order book with a strong customer base of reputable ship owners and marquee clients

Shipbuilding

We have built a variety of vessels ranging from bulk carriers, tankers and passengers ships to offshore support
vessels and port crafts. In the last five years, we have built and delivered over 35 vessels to clients worldwide.
We have built and repaired vessels and provided other offshore project services to some of the biggest corporates,

126
both in India and globally. Our Indian clients include the Indian Navy, the Indian Coast Guard, SCI, ONGC,
DGLL and DCI. Our key foreign clients include NPCC, the Clipper Group, Vroon and SIGBA AS.

We are currently building India's first IAC for the Indian Navy. We are also currently constructing two 500
passenger cum 150 ton cargo vessels and two 1200 passenger cum1000 ton cargo vessels for the A&N
Administration and a vessel for one of GoI's projects.

Ship repair

We commenced ship repair operations in 1978 and have, over the years, developed adequate capabilities to handle
complex and sophisticated repair jobs. We have also entered into special MoU arrangements to enhance our ship
repair business. For example, we repaired LDCL and DCI vessels under our respective MoUs with them.

In Fiscal 2016, major repair works for commercial clients included work on the GTV Samudra Sarvekshak and
the WSV Samudhra Nidhi for SCI, and on the Dredge VIII and Dredge XIX for the DCI and MV Kavaratti for
LDCL. In the last Fiscal, we believe our docks were running at full capacity due to which we had to turn away
certain new requests.

Competitive cost structure and efficient operations

We believe that we offer our clients competitive cost structures for their shipbuilding and ship repair needs. We
have implemented measures to help ensure that our operations run efficiently. We seek to achieve optimum
utilisation of our full capacity through effective production planning and scheduling and have delivered or are in
the process of delivering all the vessels we have contracted for, including in certain cases, delivery ahead of
schedule such as some of the FPVs for the Indian Coast Guard and deck cargo cum launch barge for NPCC. In
some cases where we were able to deliver the vessels ahead of schedule to our customers, we were able to secure
additional bonuses over and above the cost of the ship including from the Clipper Group as well as repeat orders
from satisfied clients. We are committed to the timely delivery of vessels and place great emphasis on the quality
of our construction. This helps to minimise the need to undertake rectification works for defects or non-
compliance with our customers specifications, and reduces our exposure to liquidated and other damages under
our shipbuilding contracts.

We believe we have achieved further cost savings through our cost management activities. We operate an efficient
system of sub-contracting which aids multiple repair projects and production planning. For example, rather than
maintaining a large number of full time employees, we employ a significant number of contract labour workers,
enabling us to keep the size of our workforce flexible based on our requirements. As of May 31, 2017, we had
1,824 full time employees, two employees on deputation from other government organisations and 612 contract
employees. As of May 31, 2017, we also employed about 3,178 sub-contract workers on a daily basis.We also
seek to manage the cost of the engines and other equipment used in our vessels by obtaining quotes from our
approved vendors and the cost of our raw materials and components through the selection of suppliers and
subcontractors based on several criteria, including the pricing and the quality of their products and reliability of
their services. Generally, we avoid buying from intermediaries and prefer to deal directly with manufacturers so
as to form long-term relationships with these manufacturers, and wherever possible, obtain better pricing terms.

Our shipyard is strategically located along the west coast of India, on the main sea route connecting the Persian
Gulf to Asia, and is approximately 610 nautical miles from Mumbai, a busy international maritime route that is
conveniently located for ships travelling on this route in need of repair. In addition, our shipyard is located close
to the offshore oil fields on the western coast of India and relatively close to the Middle East, which we believe,
will be an advantage in tapping the offshore rig market. Due to our shipyard's proximity to the Kochi port, we
are well-positioned to benefit from the ports infrastructure facilities such as its approach channel and navigation
facilities.

Led by a dedicated board, long serving and experienced senior management backed by a strong pool of
experienced professionals

We are one of India's leading shipyards, making us an employer of choice and providing a better incentive to our
management to continue to pursue excellence in our businesses. Each of our key management staff has, on
average, more than 25 years of experience in the industry and has been with our Company for an average of two
decades. Some of our senior management have grown within our organisation from trainee positions to head their
respective departments. We believe that our organisational culture and experienced board and senior management

127
have been instrumental in helping us achieve a low cost structure, continuous profit margins, efficient operations,
short delivery schedules, relatively lower attrition and fewer employee disputes.

We have a large pool of experienced naval architects, engineers and draftsmen. We believe that our employees
are instrumental to our success including for the quality of our products and services and our ability to operate in
a cost-efficient manner. We focus on the overall development of our employees through the implementation of
training programmes to enhance employee loyalty, reduce attrition rates, improve skills and service standards and
increase productivity. For example, we provide regular in-house training for our employees such as skill
development programs for various specialised tasks. We also have a MoU with Cochin University of Science and
Technology (CUSAT) that provides two seats for their M. Tech degree course in marine engineering annually
for executives or officers sponsored by us.

Continuous profits leading to robust financial performance

We are a profitable and dividend paying shipyard. Our Company has posted profits continuously in the last five
Fiscals. Our total income and PAT (before other comprehensive income) have increased from `16,604.52 million
and `692.82 million, respectively, in Fiscal 2015 to `22,085.01 million and `3,121.82 million, respectively, in
Fiscal 2017 at a CAGR of 15.33%, and 112.27%, respectively. Additionally, we have continuously delivered
positive RoE margins over the last five Fiscals.

We paid dividends to our shareholders at rates of 15%, 15%, 15% and 76.50% in Fiscals 2013, 2014, 2015 and
2016, respectively and declared dividend of 89.70% in Fiscal 2017. Our strong liquidity position in terms of total
cash and bank balance of 20,032.06 million as of June 30, 2017, enables us to continue to stay invested in our
business and to consistently pay our suppliers on time and benefit from supplier goodwill.

The strength of our balance sheet in terms of liquidity and indebtedness provides us with a number of competitive
advantages, such as lower finance costs and better financial terms for our future borrowing needs. As of June 30,
2017, we had fund based indebtedness in the form of tax free infrastructure bonds amounting to `1,230.00 million
(excluding interest due on these bonds). Apart from this, our Company had availed of non-fund based facilities
of `2,152.92 million, USD 2.04 million and EUR 4.69 million. Our listed debentures has been rated AA+ since
2014 by various agencies including IRRPL and CARE.

Our Strategies

Our objective is to enhance our market position by expanding our capabilities, capitalising on opportunities both
in domestic and international markets in our industry and to enhance our competitiveness. Our business strategies
are:

Expand our capabilities through our proposed Dry Dock and International Ship Repair Facility

We are in the process of developing our Dry Dock and ISRF. Once developed, we believe that these new
facilities will expand our existing capabilities significantly and help us build and repair a broader variety of
vessels including new generation aircraft carriers and oil rigs, which are expected to be key growth drivers in
the short to near long term. The process of setting up an ISRF will allow us to undertake repair of a broader
range of vessels.

Dry Dock

In addition to our existing dock, we are in the process of building a Dry Dock at a total estimated cost of `17,989.91
million. The length of the Dry Dock will be greater than the length of our existing docks. The larger size of our
proposed Dry Dock will enable us to build and repair ships of higher capacity and large naval vessels such as
aircraft carriers. Further, the greater width of our Dry Dock will also enable us to undertake building and repair
of rigs, within our shipyard.

In relation to our proposed Dry Dock, HaskoningDHV India Private Ltd has prepared a Detailed Project Report
dated October 5, 2016. We have also completed the Environmental Impact Assessment study and have obtained
environmental clearance from the MoEFCC which is subject to certain conditions. We have also received the
National Wildlife Boards clearance on April 25, 2017. For more details, see Risk Factors The environmental
clearances for our proposed Dry Dock and ISRF project is subject to the final order in the matter of Goa

128
Foundation v. Union of India and amongst others for ISRF project, the prior clearance of the Standing Committee
of the National Board for Wildlife. on page 22 and see Governmental and Other Approvals on page 382.

ISRF

We entered into an agreement for development and operation of an international ship repair facility dated
December 24, 2012 with Cochin Port Trust under which we are in process of setting up an ISRF which inter-alia
contains provisions for liquidated damages, indemnity and termination. For the ISRF, we have leased
approximately 8.12 hectares of land and 15 hectares of water body from CoPT, including their existing ship-repair
facility, for a period of 30 years pursuant to the lease deed dated April 12, 2013. Since then, we have begun using
the existing dry dock and allied facilities in the leased area for carrying out ship repair in a limited way.

The ISRF will comprise of a ship-lift, transfer system and allied facilities to be built at an estimated investment
of ` 9,694.1 million. We have appointed a consortium of Inros Lackner SE and Tata Consulting Engineers Limited
as project consultants. A detailed project report was prepared by the project consultants and received the GoI
approval on May 19, 2016. We have also obtained the environmental clearance for the project from the MoEFCC.
The environment clearance is subject to certain conditions including obtaining prior clearance of the standing
committee of the National Wildlife Board. For more details, see Risk Factors The environmental clearances
for our proposed Dry Dock and ISRF project is subject to the final order in the matter of Goa Foundation v.
Union of India and amongst others for ISRF project, the prior clearance of the Standing Committee of the National
Board for Wildlife. on page 22 and see Governmental and Other Approvals on page 382.

Build a strong order book by bidding vigorously for projects to be awarded by the Indian PSUs and defence
sector pursuant to Make in India initiative

We believe we are well-positioned to benefit from the recent Make in India initiative pursuant to which the GoI
is keen to encourage defence manufacturing in India. Policy initiatives such as granting infrastructure status to
shipbuilding, granting right of first refusal to Indian shipyards for shipbuilding and ship repair work of the Indian
PSUs and support through the new financial assistance scheme are expected to provide a steady pipeline of orders
and become key drivers of growth.

Our proposed Dry Dock and ISRF will increase our ability to build, repair and service a broader range of vessels
including vessels of larger capacities. As we are one of the very few commercial shipyards to have won defence
orders from the Indian Navy and the Indian Coast Guard in the past, and have been able to deliver successfully
on these mandates, we believe that we are well positioned to take advantage of future orders placed by the Indian
Navy and other Indian PSUs. We believe that we have an advantage over other defence PSUs, as they currently
do not have the capacity to construct certain types of ships especially those of bigger dimensions such as the IAC.

The GoI also plans to promote inland water transportation and coastal shipping. We believe that this will present
several opportunities including building high speed ferry crafts, dredgers, ropax vessels and large capacity
passenger ships. This will create demand for shipbuilding and ship repair services, which we believe we are well
equipped to deliver. For example, we recently bid in a tender floated by Hooghly Dock & Port Engineers Ltd
(HDPEL), a GoI enterprise, for the upgradation, operation, maintenance and management of two of its
shipyards at Salkia and Nazirgunge located at Howrah, West Bengal successfully. The Ministry of Shipping, GoI
approved the formation of a joint venture between our Company and HDPEL on March 29, 2017. Our Board
accorded its approval for incorporating a joint venture company with HDPEL and investing an amount of `220
million as the initial capital in the joint venture company on April 27, 2017. However, the agreements in relation
to this joint venture are yet to be executed.

Continue to enhance our construction quality and delivery time and enhance our price competitiveness in
order to increase our market share

We believe that our emphasis on quality of construction and timely delivery has been a key factor in our ability
to attract new customers and to retain our existing customers. For example, we recently delivered seven FPVs for
the Indian Coast Guard ahead of the contractual delivery schedule. The final FPV (in a series of 20) was delivered
on December 30, 2016, ahead of the scheduled delivery date of March, 2017. We believe that we are achieving
the highest standards in India across in many areas of shipbuilding, such as plate preparation and cutting
processes, block fabrication, hull erection, outfitting, design and engineering, sourcing, procurement, and project
management.

129
Furthermore, with the rising production cost globally, we believe there will be greater demand for offshore
support vessels and other commercial vessels that are built by shipyards with a competitive cost structure and
which can offer vessels at competitive prices. With our in-house fabrication workshops, we intend to continue to
develop in-house capabilities in various manufacturing processes, thereby enabling us to lower our costs of
production and maintain our price competitiveness. We also believe our operations will benefit from our business
partnerships with firms like GTT.

We believe that continuing to enhance our production planning and sequencing processes and inventory
management will also help us to maintain our cost competitiveness and further reduce the construction period of
ships.

Strengthen our market leadership by continuously adding upgraded and new vessel models to our offerings
and expanding customer services

Leveraging our experience in building other vessels, we plan to expand our product offerings. We believe that
we are strong contenders for building the next aircraft carrier for the Indian Navy, due to our unique experience
in constructing such vessels. With this experience we will also be able to bid for other defence projects.
Furthermore, we believe that we are well-positioned to pitch for opportunities in the rig building and repair
business owing to our proximity to offshore locations.

With the construction of our proposed Dry Dock and ISRF, we will also be able to build and repair new vessel
models. We are well-positioned to follow the latest domestic and international standards for our new offerings.
We also plan to expand our operations to cover the entire life cycle of a broader range of vessels.

Continue to leverage our market position and our relationships with customers, suppliers and other business
partners to support our growth and improve our competitiveness

We plan to use our leading position in the Indian shipbuilding and ship repair industry to develop new relationships
with banks, suppliers, universities and colleges, technical schools, classification societies, ship design institutes,
as well as companies in upstream and downstream, oil and offshore services industries, and to create a favourable
environment for our sustainable development.

We plan to further strengthen our long-term cooperation with well-known universities, such as CUSAT, to jointly
provide training, carry out research and development, and develop a potential workforce to support our future
growth. We have also set up a section for the preparation of basic designs to enhance our design capabilities and
to cater to future design requirements.

We believe that these initiatives will also help us in attracting the best talent to Kochi by creating a network of
shipbuilding and ship repair experts and helping Kochi to become as an important center for shipping and related
businesses.

Ship repair

We commenced ship repair operations in 1978 and have undertaken repairs of all types of ships including the up-
gradation of ships of the oil exploration industry as well as periodical maintenance, repairs and life extension of
ships of the Indian Navy, UTL, Indian Coast Guard, Fisheries and Port Trust as well as merchant ships of SCI and
ONGC and various other private owners.

Clients engaged in the defence sector

In addition to shipbuilding, we also undertake ship repair for the Indian Navy and repaired about 15 Indian Naval
Ships, on an average, in the Fiscals 2014, 2015 and 2016, respectively where our scope of work varied from
routine to complex repairs. We also completed refits of INS Aditya, INS Sukanya and INS Shardul for the Indian
Navy. We are the only shipyard to have undertaken dry dock repairs of aircraft carriers INS Viraat and INS
Vikramaditya, for the Indian Navy.

Clients engaged in the commercial sector

In Fiscal 2016, major repair works for commercial clients included work on the GTV Samudra Sarvekshak and
the WSV Samudhra Nidhi for the SCI, and on the Dredge VIII and Dredge XV for the DCI. Additionally, we have
entered into special arrangements to enhance our ship repair business. For example, we entered into MoUs with
LDCL and DCI in 2013 to take up the dry dock and afloat repairs of some of their vessels.

Offshore services

We have also offered offshore project services since 1996 and upgradation services since 1999. We have
undertaken a number of offshore projects for ONGC.

We have been undertaking repair and revamping of oil rigs since 1986. We have undertaken major revamping and
refurbishing of oil rigs at our shipyard involving steel renewal, up-gradation of drilling, cementing, mechanical,
HVAC and piping systems in almost all the major offshore vessels and rigs of ONGC. In addition, we have
upgraded the drilling capacity of rigs and also worked in the upgradation of a drilling rig, the first by an Indian
shipyard. We have successfully completed the offshore project for spudcan repairs of Sagar Ratna at Bombay
High by loading her on a self-propelled submersible barge which required a high level of project management
efficiency with coordination of various activities and logistical support. Another project of similar nature was the
clamp on project of ONGC at HB, HD & HE platforms in Heera fields.

Marine Engineering Training

We have a Marine Engineering Training Institute through which we facilitate the DGS approved GME residential
course under STCW-2010 for mechanical and naval architect engineering graduates. There are 140 sanctioned
seats per year which are filled in two batches with 108 trainees admitted in January and 32 admitted in August.
We also offer additional courses including six months practical training for marine engineering students from
colleges affiliated to universities, fire prevention and firefighting and elementary first aid training. The students
are either sponsored by shipping companies or directly enrolled.

Material Testing Services

We operate a material testing laboratory, established on our premises in 1972. Our laboratory is one of the leading
material testing laboratories in Kerala, in the field of chemical, mechanical and non-destructive testing of metals,

132
welds and alloys. The laboratory is an independent test house and all sections of the laboratory have been designed
and equipped with instruments to cater to our quality assurance activities and to extend similar services to the
neighbouring institutions, industries and government organisations. Our material testing laboratory has been
accredited by the NABL.

Our Operations

Shipbuilding Process

Construction and delivery of a vessel can generally range between 12 to 48 months depending on the type of ship.
We undertake new shipbuilding contracts taking into account the existing delivery schedules of our ongoing
projects.

The following diagram illustrates our shipbuilding process:

Payment Terms

The contract price is typically payable in instalments. Typically, 10-20% is paid at the time of signing of the
agreement and keel laying and the rest is paid immediately before the delivery of the vessel. The contracts also
usually provide for liquidated damages in the event of any delay in delivery. In certain instances, the contracts
also provide for an additional bonus payment in the event of construction and delivery ahead of schedule. We are
typically required to insure the vessel against all risks, typically from the time of keel-laying to the date of delivery
of the vessel to our customer. We typically provide a warranty period of 12 months following the delivery of the
vessel, which covers all parts of the vessel and equipment manufactured, furnished or supplied by us.

Quality Assurance and After Sales Service

We believe that the quality of our vessels and the services that we provide to our customers are crucial for our
continued growth. As of May 31, 2017, our quality control department consists of 67 personnel and is headed by
S Varadarajan, who has more than 30 years of experience in the shipbuilding and ship repair industry. As of May
31, 2017, the department comprises of 15 officers and various support personnel.

Every commercial vessel built by us is certified by a qualified shipping classification society. A classification
society certifies that a vessel has been built in accordance with the rules of the society. Our ability to construct
vessels that conform to the different standards and requirements of these classification societies reflects our ability

133
to construct vessels that are acceptable worldwide.

We have an established set of quality control assurance and monitoring procedures applicable to every stage of
the vessel construction process. Visual inspections are conducted throughout the construction process for
adherence to the production and design blueprints. Weld joints are tested by various non-destructive testing
(NDT) procedures in accordance with the plan approved by the client and the relevant classification society.
We use advanced design software in our construction process. Equipment testing, system trials and sea trials are
conducted prior to delivery of the vessel to our customers. If rectification work is required as part of our
contractual arrangement, retrials are undertaken prior to delivery to ensure that the vessel meets all requirements
and specifications required.

In relation to ship repair, a quality control cell has been established which ensures quality in hull and machinery
repair. Quality control in hull repairs is ensured through testing of weld joints through NDT procedures in the
presence of representatives of classification societies. Quality of machinery repairs is ensured through testing of

Competition

We operate in a competitive environment and we expect to face greater competition from existing competitors
located both in India and globally, and in particular from shipyards in China, South Korea and Japan. We compete
on the basis of our ability to fulfil our contractual obligations including the timely delivery of vessels constructed
or repaired by us, our shipyard's capacity and capabilities and the price and quality of the vessels we construct.
Some of our competitors have more resources than us, while certain competitors may have lower cost of
operations. In addition, certain competitors may have competitive advantages in building or repairing certain
types of vessels compared to us. Our competitors in defence shipbuilding are Mazagon Dock Shipbuilders
Limited, Goa Shipyard Limited, Garden Reach Shipbuilders and Engineering Limited, L&T Shipyard, and
Reliance Defence and Engineering limited. Our competitors in commercial shipbuilding in India include Bharati
Shipyard, ABG Shipyard, Reliance Defence and Engineering and L&T Shipyard.

We also face competition from L&T Shipyard, Reliance Defence and Engineering Limited and Hindustan

135
Shipyard in the defence ship repair segment and from Colombo dockyard, Dubai dry dock, Arab ship repair yard
and Keppel, Singapore in the commercial ship repair segment. For further details, see Industry Overview on
page 104.

Sales and Marketing

As of May 31, 2017, our business development department had 12 employees. We also use reputed international
ship brokers to develop business in foreign markets. We focus on targeting existing customers and strive to further
develop our relationship with our customers by providing a proactive after-delivery service and responding to
feedback. We believe that our customer-driven philosophy of quality, service and integrity leads to close customer
relationships, which provides us with opportunities to be invited to bid for new projects.

Human Resources

We have a group of dedicated, committed and highly skilled personnel and staff. As of May 31, 2017, our
Company employed a total workforce of 1,824 full-time employees, which comprised of 309 officers, 181
supervisors and 1,334 workmen and 894 trainees in various departments. All our employees are based in Kochi.
As of May 31, 2017, we also employed a minimum of 3,178 contract labour. Our contract workforce strength
undergoes regular change based on the necessity and work involved.

A significant number of our employees are unionized. We have collective agreements with various trade unions
that our employees are a part of. We believe that the relationship between our management and our employees is
good and we have not experienced any significant disputes with our employees in the last decade.

Employee Training

We recognise that our employees are an invaluable resource and that the competency and dedication of our
employees has been instrumental to our success. To help ensure that our employees are equipped with the
necessary skills and expertise, we conduct various training programs for our employees. Such training programs
are either conducted in-house by our senior staff or external faculty and they involve both classroom lessons and
on-the-job training by qualified instructors.

Property

Our registered office and corporate office are located on the same premises as our shipyard, which is on land
owned by us. The Dry Dock is proposed to be situated on our owned premises. However, we plan to set up the
ISRF on land leased, and to be leased, from the CoPT.

Insurance

Our shipbuilding contracts require us to maintain a builder's risk insurance policy and insure our vessels (including
all machinery, materials, equipment, appurtenances and outfit that are to be delivered to our customers for their
vessels or built onto, or installed in or upon their vessels, including supplies provided by our customers) against
all risks, typically from the time of keel-laying to the date of delivery of the vessels to our customers. The amount
insured is typically at least equivalent to the aggregate of the payments made to us by our customers or the contract
price. These insurance policies are in accordance with our shipbuilding contracts and we believe that they are
adequate for our business operations.

In relation to our ship repair contracts, we hold a ship repairer's liability insurance policy covering all vessels
under repair, which is renewed annually. We also arrange warranty insurance policies for the vessels delivered to
cover the guarantee obligations of our shipyard, on a case by case basis.

Furthermore, we maintain a standard fire and special perils insurance policy covering the whole factory and
associated assets, which is renewed every year in addition to our public liability insurance, directors and officers'
liability insurance and marine hull insurance.

We are required to contribute to social security contributions including provident fund contributions, gratuity,
pension, medical insurance and group personal accident insurance covering death, permanent partial disability or
permanent total disability due to work related accidents or otherwise of our employees in accordance with the
Indian legal and regulatory requirements. Except for the aforementioned policies which are required by law, we

136
have not taken up any other policies for our employees.

Health, Safety and Environment

We have an effective risk management system with self-regulatory processes and procedures for ensuring that
the business is conducted in a risk conscious manner. Under our risk management system, operational,
contractual, financial, business and reputational risks arising are assessed by the respective risk owners and
suitable mitigating measures are taken in advance.

We are committed to creating and maintaining a safe work environment on an ongoing basis. We are subject to
extensive health, safety and environmental laws, regulations and production process safety and environmental
technical guidelines which govern our processes and facilities. For further details, see Regulations and Policies
on page 139. We have implemented a health and safety system to inform new employees of our work and safety
policies. Our employees holding supervisory positions are required to ensure that all employees comply with
these policies.

We also focus on raising safety awareness among our employees and subcontractors workmen through various
in-house and onsite training programs. For example, in 2016, first aid training was given to employees across
departments to make the workplace safer, improve the team members' ability to save a life and prevent an injury
from becoming serious.

Industrial Security

The physical security of our shipyard has been entrusted to an external body. As per the security arrangements,
we have round-the-clock waterfront patrolling, with armed personnel and wireless CCTV surveillance systems
covering all critical locations and installations in our shipyard. We also have a biometric access control system
for various categories of persons entering our shipyard. There is a visitors facilitation centre for the scrutiny
and verification of the credentials of visitors to our Company.

Apart from this, additional special systems and measures continue to be employed for the complete security of
the IAC, such as an exclusive entry pass and special surveillance system and a special waterside security net.
We also have a cyber security policy in place.

Our security systems have not experienced any security breach or incident in the last three Fiscals. An industrial
security audit is conducted and a joint survey is conducted by us through an external agency annually.

Information Technology

Information technology is an essential element of our operations infrastructure. We invest in information

technology as its use directly lowers cost, enables scalable operations, improves efficiency, reduces business
continuity risks and enables a secure enterprise.

We use an integrated information technology system through ERP, which covers major aspects of our business,
including shipbuilding, ship repair and other areas of the shipyard as well as our administrative and corporate
departments. The stabilisation phase of our ERP system was completed in December, 2014. Our information
technology systems provide for the real time exchange of accurate information between our departments.

Awards and Accolades

Over the years, we have received several awards and accolades including Shipbuilding Company of the Year in
2015. For further details, see History and Certain Corporate Matters Awards and Recognition on page 147.

liquefied natural gas.

Our business or profitability is not materially dependent on any patent, grant of license from third parties,
industrial, commercial or financial contract (including a contract with a customer or supplier) or new production
process.

Corporate Social Responsibility

We believe in corporate responsibility and contributing to the communities in which we operate. While being
focussed on sustained financial performance, we are also aware of the necessity and importance of social
stewardship. We seek to enrich the lives of future generations through our efforts to improve the lives of less
privileged citizens, in relation to health, education, community development, capacity building and green
technology.

As part of our initiatives to realise our CSR vision, we facilitate integrated community development. We hope to
improve the quality of life, education and infrastructure of our communities and provide children with better
opportunities to learn and grow in a greener world and a more equitable society.

We spent `42.25 million, `62.72 million and `72.36 million in Fiscals 2015, 2016 and 2017, respectively in
accordance with our CSR policy. Key highlights of our CSR initiatives in Fiscal 2017 include:

VI. Tax Legislations

VII. Inclusion of shipyard as a part of Harmonised Master List for Infrastructure Sub-Sectors

Pursuant to the amendment in the master list of infrastructure sub-sectors issued vide notification f. no.
13/06/2009-INF dated March 27, 2012, and amended vide notification no. SI 85 from Department of
Economic Affairs, Ministry of Finance dated April 8, 2016 (Harmonised Master List of Infrastructure sub-
sectors), a new sub-category of shipyard was added under the category of transport. As the RBI
notification dated November 25, 2013 harmonised the RBI definition of infrastructure lending with the
Harmonised Master List of Infrastructure sub-sectors, the inclusion of shipyard as a new sub-category
enables flexible structuring of long term project loans, long-term funding from infrastructure funds at lower
rates of interest and for a longer tenure and issuance of bonds for meeting working capital requirements.

Further, RBI has recently brought in significant changes to the external commercial borrowing guidelines
(the ECB Guidelines) with respect to companies in the infrastructure and other related sectors. As per the
revised framework for the ECB Guidelines published vide A.P. (DIR Series) Circular No. 32 dated November
30, 2015 (Revised Framework for ECB Guidelines), companies in infrastructure sector have been placed
under track-II, i.e. long term ECB which effectively means that overseas borrowings by such entities shall
need to comply with 10 year minimum average maturity, unless ECB is denominated in INR. The term
infrastructure sector, for the purpose of the Revised Framework for ECB Guidelines, is defined as per the
Harmonised Master List of Infrastructure sub-sectors. Also, as per the Revised Framework for ECB
Guidelines, the restriction in respect of raising of ECB for general corporate purposes (including working
capital) has been done away with. The individual limits under automatic route for companies in infrastructure
and manufacturing sectors is upto USD 750 million or equivalent.

depreciation claimed in the accounts during the financial years 2013-14 and 2014-15.Later on during the financial year

and repairs charged during the two previous years, and treated the asset as Indian Navy acquired asset in the Financial

The Restated Summary Statement of Assets and Liabilities of theCompany as at 31st March 2017, 2016 and 2015
and the related Restated Summary Statement of Profit and Loss, Restated Summary Statement of Changes in Equity
and Restated Summary Statement of Cash Flows for the years ended 31st March 2017, 2016, and 2015 (hereinafter
collectively referred to as Restated Financial Information) have been prepared specifically for inclusion in the
Offer Document to be filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) in
connection with proposed Initial Public Offering (IPO) of its equity shares.
These Restated Financial Information have been prepared in accordance with Indian Accounting Standards (Ind
AS) notified under the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 and Companies (Indian
Accounting Standards) Amendment Rules, 2016.

These Restated Financial Information have been prepared to comply in all material respects with the requirements
of Part I of Chapter III to the Companies Act, 2013 and the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Issue
of Capital and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2009 (the SEBI regulations) as amended from time to time.
The Proforma financial information of the Company as at and for the year ended 31st March 2015, is prepared in

Circular). As envisaged by the SEBI Circular, the Company has followed the same accounting policy choices
(both mandatory exceptions and optional exemptions availed as per Ind AS 101) as initially adopted on its Ind
AS transition date (i.e. 1st April 2015) while preparing proforma financial information for the FY 2014-15 and
accordingly suitable restatement adjustments in the accounting heads have been made in the proforma financial
information. This proforma Ind AS financial information have been prepared by making Ind AS and restatement
adjustments tothe Audited Indian GAAP financial statements as at and for the year ended 31stMarch2015.

2. Significant Accounting Policies

2.1 Statement of compliance

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Ind AS as notified under the Companies (Indian
Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 read with Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013. In accordance with the
notification issued by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs, the Company has adopted Indian Accounting Standards
(referred to as Ind AS) notified under the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 with effect from 1st
April 2016. Previous period have been restated to Ind AS. In accordance with Ind AS 101 First-time Adoption of Indian
Accounting Standard, the Company has presented a reconciliation from the presentation of financial statements under
Accounting Standards notified under the Companies (Accounting Standards) Rules, 2006 (Previous GAAP) to Ind
AS, of Shareholders equity as at 31st March 2016 and 1st April 2015 and of the comprehensive net income for the year
ended 31stMarch 2016.

2.2 Basis of preparation of Financial Statements

These financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for certain financial instruments
which are measured at fair values at the end of each reporting period, as explained in the accounting policies below.
Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for goods and services. Fair
value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between
market participants at the measurement date.

206
2.3 Use of estimates and judgements

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with the Ind AS requires management to make judgements,
estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets,
liabilities and disclosures as at date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of the revenues and expenses
for the years presented. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors
that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and
conditions.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are
recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the
revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

2.4 Critical Accounting estimates and judgements:

The application of significant accounting policies that require critical accounting estimates involving complex and
subjective judgements and the use of assumptions in the financial statements have been disclosed below:

Useful lives of property, plant and equipment

The Company reviews the estimated useful lives and residual values of property, plant and equipment at the end of each
reporting period. Assumptions are also made as to whether an item meets the description of asset so as to warrant its
capitalisation and which component of the asset may be capitalised. Reassessment of life may result in change in
depreciation expense in future periods.

Valuation of deferred tax assets

The Company reviews the carrying amount of deferred tax assets at the end of each reporting period. Significant
judgements are involved in determining the elements of deferred tax items.

Impairment of unquoted investments

The Company reviews its carrying value of investments annually, or more frequently when there is indication for
impairment. If the recoverable amount is less than its carrying amount, the impairment loss is accounted for.

Recognition and measurement of provisions

The recognition and measurement of provisions are based on the assessment of the probability of an outflow of resources
and on past experience and circumstance known at the balance sheet date. The actual outflow of resources at a future
date may therefore vary from the figure included in provisions.

Provision towards Guarantee repairs

A provision is made towards guarantee repairs/claims in respect of newly built ships/small crafts delivered and repaired
ships on the basis of the technical estimation done by the Company. The guarantee claims received from the ship owners
are reviewed every year till settlement of the same. In case of a shortfall in the provision made earlier, additional
provisions are made.

Contingencies and commitments

In the normal course of business, contingent liabilities may arise from litigations and other claims against the Company.
Where the potential liabilities have a low probability of crystallizing or are very difficult to quantify reliably, we treat
them as contingent liabilities. Such liabilities are disclosed in the notes but are not provided for in the financial
statements. Although there can be no assurance regarding the final outcome of the legal proceedings, we do not expect
them to have a materially adverse impact on our financial position or profitability.

Provision for doubtful debts

The Company makes provisions for doubtful debts based on an assessment of the recoverability of trade and other
receivables. The identification of doubtful debts requires use of judgement and estimates. Where the expectation is

207
 different from the original estimate, such difference will impact the carrying value of the trade and other receivables
and doubtful debts expenses in the period in which such estimate has been changed.

Provision for inventories

Management reviews the inventory age listing on a periodic basis. This review involves comparison of the carrying
value of the aged inventory items with the respective net realisable value. The purpose is to ascertain whether a provision
is required to be made in the financial statements for any obsolete and slow-moving items and that adequate provision
for obsolete and slow-moving inventories has been made in the financial statements.

Revenue Recognition

The Company uses the percentage of completion method in accounting for its fixed price contracts. The use of the
percentage of completion method requires the Company to estimate the costs expended to date as a proportion to the
total cost to be expended on a project considering the physical progress or financial progress whichever is lower.
Provision for estimated losses if any on the uncompleted part of the contracts are provided in the period in which such
losses become probable based on the expected contract estimates at the reporting date.

Recognition and measurement of defined benefit obligations

The obligation arising from defined benefit plan is determined on the basis of actuarial assumptions. Key actuarial
assumptions include discount rate, trends in salary escalation and vested future benefits and life expectancy. The
discount rate is determined with reference to market yields at the end of thereporting period on the Government bonds.
The period to maturity of the underlying bonds correspond to the probable maturity of the post employment benefit
obligations.

2.5 Property , Plant and Equipment (PPE)

On adoption of Ind AS, the Company retained the carrying value for all of its property , plant and equipment as
recognised in the financial statements as at the date of transition to Ind AS measured as per the previous GAAP and
used that as its deemed cost as permitted by Ind AS 101 'First time adoption of Indian Accounting Standards'.

PPE are initially recognised at cost. The initial cost of PPE comprises its purchase price, and any costs directly
attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner
intended by management including non refundable duties and taxes net of any trade discounts and rebates. The cost of
PPE also includes interest on borrowings (borrowing cost directly attributable to acquisition, construction or production
of qualifying assets) upto initial recognition. PPE are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation (other than free hold
land which are stated at cost) and impairment losses, if any.

Subsequent costs are included in the asset's carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when
it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company and the cost of the items
are material and can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of any component accounted for as a separate asset is
derecognised when replaced. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to Statement of profit and loss during the
reporting period in which they are incurred.

2.6 Capital work in progress and intangible assets under development:

Capital work in progress and intangible assets under development are property, plant and equipment that are not yet
ready for their intended use at the reporting date, which are carried at cost, comprising direct cost, related incidental
expenses and attributable borrowing cost.

2.7 Depreciation

Depreciation on property, plant and equipment is provided on straight-line method based on useful life of the asset as
prescribed in Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013.

For the assets acquired from Cochin Port Trust for International Ship Repair Facility (ISRF),depreciation is provided
on the basis of remaining useful life as assessed by technical experts.

An item of property, plant and equipment and any significant part initially recognised is derecognised upon disposal or
when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain/loss arising on derecognition of the

208
 asset is included in the Statement of profit and loss when the asset is derecognised.Fully depreciated assets still in use
are retained in financial Statements at residual value .

Depreciation method, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted prospectively,
if appropriate.

2.8 Intangible Assets

Design development: Cost incurred on Design Development which are not directly chargeable on a product are
capitalized as 'Intangible Asset' and amortised on a straight-line basis over a period of five years.

Software: Cost of software which is not an integral part of the related hardware acquired for internal use is capitalised
as intangible asset and amortised on a straight-line basis over a period of three years.

Right to use: Up- front fee paid for securing right to use of land and other facility is capitalized as intangible asset and
amortised on a straight line basis over the period of lease for which the right has been obtained.

Internally generated procedure: Cost of internally generated weld procedure is capitalized as 'Intangible Asset' and
amortised on a straight-line basis over a period of three years.

2.9 Impairment of Assets

The Company assesses the impairment of assets with reference to each cash generating unit, at each Balance Sheet date.
If events or changes in circumstances based on internal and external factors indicate that the carrying value may not be
recoverable in full, the loss on account and the recoverable amount, is accounted for accordingly. The recoverable
amount is the higher of an asset's fair value less costs of disposal and value in use.

2.10 Investments

Investments that are readily realizable and are intended to be held for not more than one year from the date of such
investments are classified as current investments. All other investments are classified as Non current.

Current investments are carried at lower of cost and fair value. Non-current investments are valued at cost unless there
is a permanent diminution in the value thereof.

2.11 Inventories

(a) Raw materials, components, stores and spares are valued at weighted average cost method or net realisable value
whichever is lower. Provision for obsolescence / non- usability / deterioration is determined on the basis of technical
assessment made by the management. Goods in transit is valued at lower of cost or net realisable value. Stock of
materials in respect of construction of defence vessels wherein the cost incurred is reimbursed by the owner are shown
as reduction from the advances paid by the owner for construction of the vessel.

(b) Work in progress:

Work in progress Ship Building :- Work in progress is recognised only when the percentage of physical completion is
less than the financial completion, in which case the cost proportionate to excess of percentage of financial completion
over physical completion is treated as Work in progress. In the case of Indigenous Aircraft Carrier since all the materials
belongs to Indian Navy, work in progress is not recognized.

Work in progress of ships/offshore structures under repair, which have not reached 75% stage of physical completion
and general engineering jobs are valued at cost. Work- in- progress of ships where physical construction has not started
is also valued at cost.

(c) Loose tools stock are valued at cost and tools in use are revalued after providing for loss on revaluation estimated
at 30% of book value.

(d) Stock of scrap is valued at net realizable value after adjusting customs duty, if any, payable on the scrap.

2.12 Financial instruments

Trade Receivables

209
 The Company assesses at each Balance Sheet date whether a financial asset or a group of financial asset is impaired.
Ind AS 109 requires expected credit loss to be measured through a loss allowance. The Company recognises lifetime
expected credit losses for all trade receivables that do not constitute a financing transaction. Impairment loss allowance
is based on a simplified approach as permitted by Ind AS 109. As a practical expedient, the company uses a provision
matrix to determine the impairment loss on the portfolio of its trade receivables.

Full provision is made for all trade receivables considered doubtful of recovery when the debt is more than three years
or if it is certain that the debt is not recoverable.

Where debts are disputed in legal proceedings, provision is made if any decision is given against the company even if
the same is taken up on appeal to higher authorities/courts.

Impairment loss allowance (or reversal) that is required to be recognised at the reporting date is recognised as an
impairment loss or gain in the Statement of Profit & Loss Account.

Financial assets and liabilities are recognised when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the
instrument. Financial assets and liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly
attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial
liabilities at fair value through profit or loss) are added to or deducted from the fair value measured on initial recognition
of financial asset or financial liability.

Cash and cash equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid financial instruments, which are readily convertible into known amounts of
cash that are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value and having original maturities of three months or less
from the date of purchase, to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents consist of balances with banks which are
unrestricted for withdrawal and usage.

Financial assets at amortised cost

Financial assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost if these financial assets are held within a business whose
objective is to hold these assets in order to collect contractual cash flows and the contractual terms of the financial asset
give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount
outstanding.

Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI)

Financial assets are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if these financial assets are held within
a business whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows that give rise on specified dates to
solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding and by selling financial assets.

The Company has made an irrevocable election to present subsequent changes in the fair value of equity investments
not held for trading in Other Comprehensive Income.

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)

Financial assets are measured at fair value through profit or loss unless it is measured at amortised cost or at fair value
through other comprehensive income on initial recognition. The transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition
of financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are immediately recognised in profit or loss.

Financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.

Off setting of financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are off set and the net amount is reported in financial statements if there is a
currently enforceable legal right to off set the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, to
realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.

2.13 Foreign Currency Transactions

210
 The financial statements are presented in Indian Rupees (INR), which is the functional currency and presentation
currency of the Company.

a. Foreign Currency Transactions:

Foreign exchange transactions are recorded in functional currency adopting the exchange rate prevailing on
the dates of respective transactions. Monetory items denominated in foreign currencies at the year end are re-
measured at the exchange rate prevailing on the balance sheet date. Non monetary foreign currency items are
carried at cost. Any income or expense on account of exchange difference either on settlement or on
restatement is recognised in the statement of Profit and Loss.
b. Derivative instruments and hedge accounting:
The Company designates certain foreign exchange forward contracts as hedge instruments in respect of foreign
exchange risks. These hedges are accounted for as cash flow hedges. Derivatives are initially recognised at
fair value on the date a derivative contact is entered into and are subsequently re-measured to their fair value
at the end of each reporting period.
The use of foreign currency and derivative contracts is governed by the Companys foreign exchange risk
management policy approved by the Board of Directors which provide written directives on the use of such
financial derivatives consistent with the Companys risk management strategy. The company does not use
derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes.
The hedge instruments are designated and documented as hedges at the inception of the contract. The
effectiveness of hedge instruments to reduce the risk associated with the foreign currency exposure that is
being hedged is assessed and measured at inception and on an ongoing basis. The ineffective portion of
designated hedges are recognised immediately in the Statement of Profit and Loss.
The effective portion of change in the fair value of the designated hedging instrument is recognised in the
Other Comprehensive Income and accumulated under the heading cash flow hedge reserve.
Hedge accounting is discontinued when the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated or exercised
without replacement or rollover (as part of hedging strategy), or if its designation as a hedge is revoked, or
when the hedge no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting. Any gain or loss recognised in Other
Comprehensive Income and accumulated in equity till that time remains and is recognised in Statement of
Profit and Loss when the forecasted transaction ultimately affects the profit or loss. When a forecasted
transaction is no longer expected to occur, the cumulative gain or loss accumulated in equity is transferred to
the Statement of Profit and Loss.

2.14 Advance/progress payments received

Advance/progress payments received from customers in respect of repair work of ships/offshore structures are shown
as deduction from the amount of work in progress in respect of income recognized under proportionate completion
method. In the case of ship building, the advance payment received is adjusted only when the ship is invoiced.

2.15 Provision , Contingent Liabilities and Contingent assets

A provision is recognised if, as a result of a past event, the Company has a present legal obligation that can be estimated
reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Provisions
(excluding retirement benefits and compensated leave) are not discounted to its present value and are determined by
the best estimate of the outflow of economic benefits required to settle the obligation at the reporting date. These are
reviewed at each reporting date adjusted to reflect the current best estimates.

Provision towards guarantee claims in respect of ships/ small crafts delivered wherever provided /maintained is based
on technical estimation. For ships delivered, guarantee claims are covered by way of insurance policies covering the
guarantee period on case to case basis, where ever required.

Contingent liability is disclosed when the company has a possible obligation or a present obligation and it is probable
that a cash flow will not be required to settle the obligation.

Contingent assets are not disclosed in the financial statements unless an inflow of economic benefits is probable.

2.16 Revenue Recognition

211
 a) Contracts for the construction of ships and small crafts (Other than Indigenous Aircraft
Carrier)

The income from ship building is recognized on percentage of completion method, in the proportion the cost incurred
for the work performed up to the reporting date bear to the estimated total contract cost, considering the physical
progress or financial progress, whichever is lower. Where current estimates of total contract costs and revenue indicate
a loss, provision is made for the entire loss, irrespective of the amount of work done.

b) Construction of Indigenous Aircraft Carrier

In the case of construction of IAC which is partly fixed price basis and partly cost plus basis, the income from fixed
price is recognised on the percentage of completion method.

Mark up from cost plus part of contract activities for materials and design outsourcing are recognised when payments
towards the same are made. Cost of materials, value of design outsourcing and other expenses incurred for the vessel
which are recoverable separately from Navy is charged off to statement of Profit and Loss when materials are
consumed/activities are performed/expenses are incurred and are grossed up with the value of work done and recognised
as income.

c) Contracts for repair of ships/ Offshore structures:

Income from repair of ships /Offshore structures is recognized based on proportionate completion method when
proportionate performance of each ship repair activity exceeds 75% after taking into consideration possible
contingencies with reference to the realizable value of work done. The proportionate progress is measured by the
Company's technical evaluation of the percentage of physical completion of each job. In the case of ship repair
contracts completed and invoices settled during the year, income recognized is net of reductions due to price variation
admitted. In the case of unsettled invoices, the income is recognised net of estimated amount of reductions.
Differences, if any, on settlement are adjusted against income in the year of settlement.

d) Liquidated damages and interest on advances

No income has been recognized on account of (a) interest on advances given and (b) liquidated damages, where the
levies depend on decisions regarding force majeure condition of contract. These are accounted for on completion of
contracts and / or when final decisions are taken.

e) Accounting for insurance claims

(i) Warranty/Builder Risk claims

2.17 Employee benefits

Employee benefits consist of salaries and wages contribution to provident fund, superannuation fund, gratuity fund,
compensated absences and towards medical assistance.

212
 Post-employment benefit plans

Defined Contribution plans

Defined contribution to Employees Pension scheme for eligible employees are made to CSL Superannuation Pension
Trust for Executives and Supervisors/CSL Workmen Pension Trust Pension Trusts and are charged as expense as they
fall due. Such benefits are classified as Defined Contribution Schemes as the Company does not carry any further
obligations, apart from the contributions made.

The Company also makes contribution towards provident fund, in substance a defined contribution retirement benefit
plan. The provident fund is administered by the Trustees of the Cochin Shipyard Limited Employees Contributory
Provident Fund Trust. The rules of the Companys provident fund administered by the Trust, require that if the Board
of Trustees are unable to pay interest at the rate declared by the Employees Provident Fund by the Government under
para 60 of the Employees Provident Fund Scheme, 1952 for the reason that the return on investment is less or for any
other reason, then the deficiency shall be made good by the Company. Having regard to the assets of the fund and the
return on the investments, the Company does not expect any deficiency as at the year end.

The Company also makes contribution towards Employees Medical Assistance Trusts which are charged as expense as
they fall due. Such benefits are classified as Defined Contribution Schemes as the Company does not carry any further
obligations, apart from the contributions made.

Defined benefit plans

The Company provides for gratuity, a defined benefit retirement plan covering eligible employees. The liability or asset
recognised in the balance sheet in respect of its defined benefit plan is the present value of the defined benefit obligation
at the end of the reporting period less the fair value of plan assets. The defined benefit obligation is calculated annually
by actuaries using the projected unit credit method.
The present value of the said obligation is determined by discounting the estimated future cash outflows, using market
yields of government bonds that have tenure approximating the tenures of the related liability.
The interest income / (expense) are calculated by applying the discount rate to the net defined benefit liability or asset.
The net interest income / (expense) on the net defined benefit liability or asset is recognised in the Statement of Profit
and loss.

Remeasurement gains and losses arising from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are
recognised in the period in which they occur, directly in other comprehensive income. They are included in retained
earnings in the Statement of Changes in Equity and in the Balance Sheet.
Changes in the present value of the defined benefit obligation resulting from plan amendments or curtailments are
recognised immediately in Statement of profit and loss as past service cost.

Other employee benefits

Compensated absences

The Company has a policy on compensated absence which are both accumulating and non-accumulating in nature. The
expected cost of accumulating compensated absence is determined by Actuarial valuation performed by an independent
actuary at each Balance Sheet date using projected unit credit method on the additional amount expected to be
paid/availed as a result of unused entitlement that has accumulated at the Balance Sheet date. Expense on non-
accumulating compensated absence is recognised in the period in which the absences occur.

2.18 Borrowing cost

General and specific borrowing costs directly attributable to acquisition/ construction or production of qualifying assets
(net of income earned on temporary deployment of funds) are capitalized as part of cost of such assets upto the date
when such assets are ready for intended use. A qualifying asset is one that necessarily takes substantial period of time
to get ready for its intended use. All other borrowing costs are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss in the period
in which they are incurred.

213
2.19 Leases

As a lessee:

Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of
ownership to the lessee. Leases where a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are retained by the
lessor are classified as operating leases.

(i) Operating Lease:

Operating lease payments are recognized as an expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss on a straight-line basis over
the lease term except where another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic
benefits from leased assets are consumed or unless the lease agreement explicitly states that increase is on account of
inflation

(ii) Finance Lease:

Assets taken on lease by the Company in its capacity as lessee, where the Company has substantially all the risks and
rewards of ownership are classified as finance lease. Such leases are capitalised at the inception of the lease at lower of
the fair value or the present value of the minimum lease payments and a liability is recognised for an equivalent amount.
Each lease rental paid is allocated between the liability and the interest cost so as to obtain a constant periodic rate of
interest on the outstanding liability for each year.

2.20 Prior period adjustment

Prior period adjustments due to errors, having material impact on the financial affairs of the Company, are corrected
retrospectively by restating the comparative amounts for prior periods presented in which the error occurred or if the
error occurred before the earliest period presented, by restating the opening statement of financial position.

2.21 Taxes on Income

Income tax

Income tax expense comprises current tax expense and the net change in the deferred tax asset or liability during the
year.Current and deferred taxes are recognised in Statement of Profit and Loss, except when they relate to items that
are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the current and deferred tax are also
recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.

Current tax

Current tax is measured at the amount of tax expected to be payable on the taxable income for the year as determined
in accordance with the provisions of the Income Tax Act, 1961.Current tax assets and current tax liabilities are off set
when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle the asset
and the liability on a net basis.

Deferred tax

Deferred income tax is recognised using the Balance Sheet approach. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are
recognised for deductible and taxable temporary differences arising between the tax base of assets and liabilities and
their carrying amount, except when the deferred income tax arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in
a transaction that is not a business combination and affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss at the time of
the transaction.

Deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that either future taxable profits or reversal of
deferred tax liabilities will be available, against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carry forward of
unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised.

The carrying amount of a deferred tax asset shall be reviewed at the end of each reporting date and reduced to the extent
that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax
asset to be utilised.

214
 Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively
enacted by the end of the reporting period and are expected to apply when the related deferred tax asset is realised or
the deferred tax liability is settled.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are off set when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and
liabilities and when the deferred tax balances relate to the same taxation authority.

2.22 Earnings Per Share

Basic and Diluted Earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net profit attributable to equity shareholders by the
weighted average number of equity shares/dilutive potential equity shares outstanding as at the end of the reporting
period as the case may be.

2.23 Segment Reporting

Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which discrete financial information is available
that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker, in deciding how to allocate resources and assessing
performance. The Companys chief operating decision maker is the Chairman & Managing Director.

The Company has identified business segments (industry practice) as reportable segments. The business segments
comprise: 1) Ship Building and 2) Repair of Ships/offshore structures.

Segment revenue, segment expenses, segment assets and segment liabilities have been identified to segments on the
basis of their relationship to the operating activities of the segment. Revenue, expenses, assets and liabilities which
relate to the Company as a whole and are not allocable to segments on a reasonable basis have been included under
unallocated revenue / expenses / assets / liabilities.

2.24 Cash flow statement

Cash Flows are reported using the Indirect Method, whereby profit/loss before tax is adjusted for the effect of
transactions of non-cash nature and any deferrals or accruals of past or future cash receipts or payments and items of
income or expenses associated with investing or financial cash flows. Cash flows from operating, investing and
financial activities of the Company are segregated based on the available information.

For the purpose of cash flow statement, Cash and cash equivalent comprise cash at banks and on hand and short-term
deposits with an original maturity of three months or less, which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value,
net of outstanding bank overdrafts, if any. Bank overdrafts are disclosed within borrowings in current liabilities in the
Balance Sheet

2.25 Dividend to equity shareholders

Dividend to equity shareholders is recognised as a liability and deducted from shareholders equity, in the period in
which the dividends are approved by the equity shareholders in the general meeting.

2.26 Recent accounting pronouncements - Standards issued but not yet effective

Standards issued but not yet effective in March 2017, the Ministry of Corporate Affairs issued the Companies (Indian
Accounting Standards) (Amendments) Rules, 2017, notifying amendments to Ind AS 7, Statement of Cash Flows and
Ind AS 102, Share-based payment. These amendments are in accordance with the recent amendments made by
International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) to IAS 7, Statement of Cash Flows and IFRS 2, Share-based
payment, respectively. The amendments are applicable from 1st April, 2017.

Amendment to Ind AS 7:

The amendment to Ind AS 7 requires the entities to provide disclosures that enable users of financial statements to
evaluate changes in liabilities arising from financing activities, including both changes arising from cash flows and
non-cash changes,suggesting inclusion of a reconciliation between the opening and closing balances in the Balance
Sheet for liabilities arising from financing activities, to meet the disclosure requirement.

215
 The Company is evaluating the requirements of the amendment and the effect on the financial statements is being
evaluated.

Amendment to Ind AS 102:

The amendment to Ind AS 102 provides specific guidance to measurement of cash-settled awards, modification of cash
settled awards and awards that include a net settlement feature in respect of withholding taxes. It clarifies that the fair
value of cash-settled awards is determined on a basis consistent with that used for equity-settled awards. Market-based
performance conditions and non-vesting conditions are reflected in the fair values, but non-market performance
conditions and service vesting conditions are reflected in the estimate of the number of awards expected to vest. Also,
the amendment clarifies that if the terms and conditions of a cash-settled share-based payment transaction are modified
with the result that it becomes an equity-settled share-based payment transaction, the transaction is accounted for as
such from the date of the modification. Further, the amendment requires the award that include a net settlement feature
in respect of withholding taxes to be treated as equity-settled in its entirety. The cash payment to the tax authority is
treated as if it was part of an equity settlement.

The requirements of the amendment have no impact on the financial statements as the standard is not applicable to the
Company.

3.5 Effect of Ind AS adoption on the Restated Summary statement of Cash Flows for the Year ended 31stMarch 2016

There are no material adjustments to the statement of cash flows as reported under Previous GAAP

Notes to Reconciliation between previous GAAP and Ind AS

a) Deemed Cost
The Company has elected to consider the carrying value of Property, Plant and Equipment (PPE) and Intangible
asset as deemed cost as at the date of transition.

b) Dividend (Including dividend tax)

Under the previous GAAP, dividends proposed by the Board of directors after the Balance sheet date but before
the approval of the financial statements were considered as adjusting events, Accordingly the provision for
proposed dividend was recognised as a liability. Under Ind AS, such dividends are recognised when the same is
approved by the shareholders in the general meeting. Accordingly, the liability for proposed dividend including
dividend distribution tax of 1043.01millionsas at 31st March 2016 ( 204.51 millions as at 1st April, 2015)
included under provisions have been reversed with corresponding adjustment to retained earnings. Consequently
the total equity has increased by an equivalent amount.

c) Other Comprehensive Income (OCI)

Under Ind AS, all items of income and expense recognised in a period should be included in profit or loss for the
period, unless a standard requires or permits otherwise. Items of income and expense that are not recognised in
profit or loss but are shown in the statement of profit and loss as other comprehensive income includes
remeasurements of defined benefit plans, effective portion of gains and losses on cash flow hedging instruments
and fair value gains or (losses) on FVTOCI equity instruments. The concept of other comprehensive income did
not exist under previous GAAP.

d) Employee benefits
Under previous GAAP, actuarial gains and losses were recognized in statement of profit and loss. Under Ind AS,
the actuarial gains and losses form part of remeasurement of net defined benefit liability/asset which is recognized
in other comprehensive income in the respective periods.
This has resulted in increase in net profit by 17.67 millions for year ended 31st March 2016. However the same
does not result in difference in equity or total comprehensive income.

e) Investments
Under previous GAAP, current investments were measured at lower of cost or fair value and long term investments
were measured at cost less diminution in value which is other than temporary, under Ind AS Financial assets other
than amortized cost are subsequently measured at fair value.
Fair value changes with respect to investments in equity instruments designated as at fair value through other
comprehensive income have been recognised in the other comprehensive income for the year ended 31st March
2016.
Consequent to the above, profit for the year ended 31st March 2016 increased by 1.00 million. However, there is
no change in other equity.

f) Security Deposit
Under the previous GAAP, interest free lease security deposits (that are refundable in cash on completion of the
lease term) are recorded at their transaction value. Under Ind AS, all financial assets are required to be recognised
at fair value. Accordingly, the Company has fair valued these security deposits under Ind AS. Difference between
the fair value and transaction value of the security deposit has been recognised as prepaid rent. Consequent to this
change, the amount of security deposits decreased by 38.77 millions as at 31st March 2016 ( 39.17 millions as
on 1stApril 2015). The prepaid rent increased by 36.80 millions as at 31st March 2016( 38.17 millions as on 1st
April 2015). The profit for the year decreased by 0.96 millions( due to amortisation of the prepaid rent of 1.36
millions which is partially off-set by the notional interest income of 0.40 millions recognised on security deposits.

223
 g) Tax adjustments
Tax adjustments include current tax and deferred tax impact on account of differences between previous GAAP
and Ind AS. These adjustments has resulted in an increase in equity and Total Comprehensive Income under Ind
AS by 9.94 millions as at 31st March 2016

h) Expected credit Loss

The Company recognises lifetime expected credit losses for all trade receivables that do not constitute a financing
transaction. Impairment loss allowance is based on a simplified approach as permitted by Ind AS 109. As a practical
expedient, the company uses a provision matrix to determine the impairment loss on the portfolio of its trade
receivables.

3.6 Total Equity Reconciliation as at 31st March 2015 Proforma

The Proforma financial information of the Company as at and for the year ended 31st March 2015, is prepared in accordance
with requirements of SEBI Circular SEBI/HO/CFD/DIL/CIR/P/2016/4 dated 31st March 2016 (SEBI Circular). As
envisaged by the SEBI Circular, the Company has followed the same accounting policy choices (both mandatory exceptions
and optional exemptions availed as per Ind AS 101) as initially adopted on its Ind AS transition date (i.e. 1st April 2015)
while preparing the proforma financial information for the FY 2014-15 and accordingly suitable restatement adjustments
in the accounting heads has been made in the proforma financial information. This proforma Ind AS financial information
have been prepared by making Ind AS adjustments to the audited Indian GAAP financial statements as at and for the year

3.10 Effect of Ind AS adoption on the Restated Summary statement of Cash Flows for the Year ended 31stMarch 2016

There are no material adjustments to the statement of cash flows as reported under Previous GAAP

Notes to Proforma adjustments:

a) Deemed Cost
The Company has elected to consider the carrying value of Property, Plant and Equipment (PPE) and Intangible asset as
deemed cost as at the date of transition.

b) Dividend (Including dividend tax)

Under the previous GAAP, dividends proposed by the Board of directors after the Balance sheet date but before the approval
of the financial statements were considered as adjusting events, Accordingly the provision for proposed dividend was
recognised as a liability. Under Ind AS, such dividends are recognised when the same is approved by the shareholders in
the general meeting. Accordingly, the liability for proposed dividend including dividend distribution tax of 204.51
millionsas at 31st March 2015 included under provisions have been reversed with corresponding adjustment to retained
earnings. Consequently the total equity has increased by an equivalent amount.

c) Other Comprehensive Income (OCI)

Under Ind AS, all items of income and expense recognised in a period should be included in profit or loss for the period,
unless a standard requires or permits otherwise. Items of income and expense that are not recognised in profit or loss but
are shown in the statement of profit and loss as other comprehensive income includes remeasurements of defined benefit
plans, effective portion of gains and losses on cash flow hedging instruments and fair value gains or (losses) on FVTOCI
equity instruments. The concept of other comprehensive income did not exist under previous GAAP.

d) Employee benefits
Under previous GAAP, actuarial gains and losses were recognized in statement of profit and loss. Under Ind AS, the
actuarial gains and losses form part of remeasurement of net defined benefit liability/asset which is recognized in other
comprehensive income in the respective periods.
This has resulted in increase in net profit by 29.05 millions for year ended 31st March 2015. However the same does not
result in difference in equity or total comprehensive income.

229
e) Security Deposit
Under the previous GAAP, interest free lease security deposits (that are refundable in cash on completion of the lease term)
are recorded at their transaction value. Under Ind AS, all financial assets are required to be recognised at fair value.
Accordingly, the Company has fair valued these security deposits under Ind AS. Difference between the fair value and
transaction value of the security deposit has been recognised as prepaid rent. Consequent to this change, the amount of
security deposits decreased by 39.17 millions as on 31st March 2015. The prepaid rent increased by 38.17 millions as on
31st March 2015. The profit for the year and total equity as at 31st March 2015 decreased by 1.00 million ( due to
amortisation of the prepaid rent of 2.18 millions which is partially off-set by the notional interest income of 1.00 million
recognised on security deposits.)

f) Expected credit Loss

The Company recognises lifetime expected credit losses for all trade receivables that do not constitute a financing
transaction. Impairment loss allowance is based on a simplified approach as permitted by Ind AS 109. As a practical
expedient, the company uses a provision matrix to determine the impairment loss on the portfolio of its trade receivables.

g) Tax adjustments
Tax adjustments include current tax and deferred tax impact on account of differences between previous GAAP and Ind
AS. These adjustments has resulted in an increase in equity and Total Comprehensive Income under Ind AS by 3.32
millions as at 31st March 2015

47. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The fair value hierarchy is based on inputs to valuation techniques that are used to measure fair value that are either observable
or unobservable and consist of the following three levels:

Level I inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the
measurement date

Level II inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either
directly or indirectly.

Level III inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability

The following table summarises financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and financial assets
that are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis (but fair value disclosures are required)

Note:

1. The investments in equity instruments are not held for trading. Instead, they are held for medium or long term strategic
purpose. Upon the application of Ind AS 109, the Company has chosen to designate these investments in equity
instruments as at FVTOCI as the directors believe that this provides a more meaningful presentation of medium or long
term strategic investments, than reflecting changes in fair value immediately in profit or loss.
2. Investments included in level 3 of fair value hierarchy have been valued using the cost approach to arrive at their fair
value.The cost of unquoted investments approximate the fair value because there is a wide range of possible fair value
measurements and the cost represents estimate of fair value within that range.
3. There were no transfers between Level 1 and 2 in the period.
4. Loans, Borrowings are at the market rates and therefore the carrying value is the fair value
5. The carrying amount of trade receivables, trade and other payables, short term loans are considered to be the same as
their fair value due to their short term nature
6. Difference between carrying amounts and fair values of bank deposits, other financial assets,other financial liabilities
and borrowings subsequently measured at amortised cost is not significant in each of the years presented.

48. Financial Risk Management Policy

Financial Risk Management Objective and Policies:

The Companys principal financial liabilities, other than derivatives, comprise loans and borrowings, trade and other
payables and advances from Customers. The main purpose of these financial liabilities is to finance the Companys
operations, projects under implementation and to provide guarantees to support its operations. The Companys principal
financial assets include Investment, loans and advances, trade and other receivables and cash and bank balances that
derive directly from its operations. The Company is exposed to market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The
Companys senior management oversees the management of these risks. All derivative activities for risk management
purposes are carried out by under the supervision of the Forex Risk Management Committee by assigning necessary
resources. It is the Companys policy that no trading in derivatives for speculative purposes may be undertaken. The
Board of Directors reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks, which are summarised below.

Market Risk
Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of financial assets will fluctuate because of changes in
market prices. Market risk comprises three types of risk: interest rate risk, currency risk and other price risk, such as
equity price risk and commodity risk. Financial Assets affected by market risk include loans and borrowings, deposits
and derivative financial instruments.

270
Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of
changes in market interest rates. The Companys exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily
to the Companys long-term debt obligations with floating interest rates.

Foreign Currency Risk

Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of an exposure will fluctuate because of changes
in foreign exchange rates. The Companys exposure to the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates relates primarily
to the Companys operating activities (when revenue or expense is denominated in a foreign currency). The Company
manages its foreign currency risk by hedging transactions that are expected to realise in future and are governed by the
policies of the Company as approved by the Board.

Commodity Price Risk

The Company is affected by the price volatility of certain commodities. Its operating activities require the purchase of
steel, major machineries, equipments etc. Therefore, the Company plans its purchases closely to optimise the price.

Credit Risk
Credit risk is the risk that a counter party will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or customer contract,
leading to a financial loss. The Company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities (primarily trade
receivables and advances to suppliers) and from its financing activities, including deposits with banks and financial
institutions, foreign exchange transactions and other financial instruments.

2. Changes in Accounting Policies:

There has been no change in Accounting Policies during the Fiscal Years Ended 31st March 2014 and 31st March 2013

3. Other Adjustments

In the financial statements for the Fiscal Years Ended 31st March 2014 and 31st March 2013, certain items of
income/expenses have been identified as adjustments pertaining to earlier years. These adjustments were recorded in
the year in which they were identified. However, for the purpose of Restated Financial Statements, such adjustments
have been appropriately recorded in the respective years to which the transactions pertain. Adjustments related to
financial years prior to year ended 31st March 2013 have been adjusted against the opening balance of the Restated
Summary Statement of Profit and Loss Account as at 1st April 2012. The details of such adjustments are as under:

a) Prior Period Items

285
 In the Financial statements for the,Fiscal years ended 31st March 2014 and 31st March 2013, certain items of
income/expenses have been identified as prior period items. For the purpose of this statement, such prior period
items have been appropriately adjusted in the respective years.

b) Depreciation and amortisation

Pursuant to the notification of Schedule II of the Companies Act, 2013 (the 2013 Act), by the Ministry of
Corporate Affairs effective 1 April 2014, the Management has internally reassessed and changed, wherever
necessary the useful lives to compute depreciation, to conform to the requirements of the 2013 Act, for Companies
incorporated in India. Consequently, the carrying amount as at 1st April 2014 is being depreciated over the revised
remaining useful life of the asset.

Accordingly, an amount of 38.51 millions (net of deferred Tax of 19.83millions) representing the written down
value of fixed asset with nil revised remaining useful life as at 1st April 2014 was reduced from the retained earnings
as at such date. The same has been adjusted in the respective years and in the balance brought forward in Profit and
Loss Account as at 1st April 2012.

c) Effect of Indian Navy Acquired Asset restated

The claim for asset acquired/constructed to augment the construction of Indigenous Aircraft Carrier ( Quay III
expansion and allied works) was initially denied by Indian Navy and hence accounted as Company's asset and
repairs expense and depreciation claimed in the accounts during the financial years 2013-14 and 2014-15.Later on
during the financial year 2015-16 , after lot of deliberations Indian Navy accepted the claim. In the financial year
2015-16, when Indian Navy agreed to fund these assets and paid off 81.18 millions to the Company, the Company
wrote back/credited back the depreciation and repairs charged during the two previous years, and treated the asset
as Indian Navy acquired asset in the Financial statements. For restatement purpose, items such as depreciation
written back, fixed assets, Indian Navy acquired asset (asset on infrastructure), depreciation and repairs expense
have been adjusted, so as to reflect the original transaction of charging the asset as Indian Navy funded asset.

d) Excess Provision written back

In the financial statements for the Fiscal years ended31st March 2014 and 31st March 2013, certain Provisions created
in earlier years were written back. For the purpose of Restatement, the said provisions, wherever required have been
appropriately adjusted in the respective years in which the same were originally created and the balance brought
forward in Profit and Loss Account as at 1st April 2012.
In the case of ship repair contracts completed and invoices settled during the year, income recognized is net of
reductions due to price variation admitted. In the case of unsettled invoices, the income is recognised net of estimated
amount of reductions. Differences, if any, on settlement are adjusted against income in the year of settlement. For
the purpose of Restatement, the said differences have been adjusted in the respective years in which income is
recognized.

e) Materialisation of Contingent Liabilities

In the financial statements for the Fiscal years ended31st March 2014 and 31st March 2013contingent liabilities are
disclosed in the notes to accounts and are not recognized in the books of accounts . However during the said periods
certain contingent liabilities had subsequently materialised and were provided for only in the subsequent year. For
the purpose of Restatement, the said liabilities have been adjusted to the respective year in which the liability relates
to, including adjustment to the balance brought forward in Profit and Loss Account as at 1st April 2012.

f) Liabilities Provided related to earlier Years

During the years under consideration, certain liabilities have been identified by the Company, which were required
to be provided in earlier years. For the purpose of Restated Financial Statements, provisions for liabilities pertaining
to earlier years accounted for during the Fiscal years ended31st March 2017, 31st March 2016, 31st March 2015, 31st
March 2014 and 31st March 2013have been adjusted in the respective financial years to which they pertain and in
the balance brought forward in Profit and Loss Account as at 1st April 2012.

g) Change in Contract Terms

286
 In respect of Indigenous Aircraft Carrier (IAC) income, pending the signing of Phase II Contract, the income in
respect of Phase II activities completed during financial years 2013-14 and 2012-13 were recognised in financial
year 2013-14 at the rate of Phase I Contract and the same is qualified in Auditors Report 2013-14. Since the contract
for phase II has been signed between Indian Navy and the Company on 16-12-2014 (2014-15), the difference
between Phase I Rate and Phase II Rate is applied on Phase II activities performed during financial years 2012-13
and 2013-14, and income is recognised in the financial year 2014-15 for the same. For Restatement, the same is
adjusted in the actual financial years - 2013-14 and 2012-13.

 SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCES BETWEEN INDIAN GAAP AND IND AS
Our Restated Financial Information included in this Red Herring Prospectus is prepared in accordance with Ind
AS for the financial years ended March 31, 2017, March 31, 2016 and March 31, 2015 and in accordance with
Indian GAAP for the financial years ended March 31, 2014 and March 31, 2013.

The following table summarizes certain of the areas in which differences between Indian GAAP and Ind AS could
be significant to our financial position and results of operations. This summary should not be taken as an
exhaustive list of all the differences between Indian GAAP and Ind AS. No attempt has been made to identify all
recognition and measurement, disclosures, presentation or classification differences that would affect the manner
in which transactions or events are presented in our financial statements (or notes thereto). Certain principal
differences between Indian GAAP and Ind AS that may have a material effect on our financial statements are
summarized below. Accordingly, no assurance can be provided to investors that our financial statements would
not be materially different if prepared in accordance with Ind AS.

Potential investors should consult their own professional advisors for an understanding of the differences between
Indian GAAP and Ind AS and how those differences might affect the financial information disclosed in this Red
Herring Prospectus.

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS

You should read the following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations together with our
restated financial information which is included in this Red Herring Prospectus. The following discussion and
analysis of our financial condition is based on our restated financial statements for the Fiscals ended March 31,
2017, 2016 and 2015 including the related notes and reports, prepared in accordance with Ind AS and included
in this Red Herring Prospectus. Our restated financial statements have been derived from our audited financial
statements. This discussion contains forward-looking statements and reflects our current views with respect to
future events and financial performance. Actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these
forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors such as those described under Presentation of
Financial, Industry and Market Data, Risk Factors and Forward Looking Statements on pages 13, 18 and
16, respectively, and elsewhere in this Red Herring Prospectus. We prepare our financial statements in
accordance with Indian accounting standards, which differ in material respects from IFRS and U.S. GAAP.

Overview

We are the largest public sector shipyard in India in terms of dock capacity, as of March 31, 2015, according to
the CRISIL Report. We cater to clients engaged in the defence sector in India and clients engaged in the
commercial sector worldwide. In addition to shipbuilding and ship repair, we also offer marine engineering
training.

As of May 31, 2017, we have two docks dock number one, primarily used for ship repair (Ship Repair Dock)
and dock number two, primarily used for shipbuilding (Shipbuilding Dock). Our Ship Repair Dock is one of
the largest in India and enables us to accommodate vessels with a maximum capacity of 125,000 DWT (Source:
CRISIL Report). Our Shipbuilding Dock can accommodate vessels with a maximum capacity of 110,000 DWT
(Source: CRISIL Report).

We are in the process of constructing a new dock, a stepped dry dock (Dry Dock). This stepped dock will
enable longer vessels to fill the length of the dock and wider, shorter vessels and rigs to be built or repaired at the
wider part. We are also in the process of setting up an International Ship Repair Facility (ISRF), which includes
setting up a shiplift and transfer system.

In the last two decades, we have built and delivered vessels across broad classifications including bulk carriers,
tankers, Platform Supply Vessels (PSVs), Anchor Handling Tug Supply vessels (AHTSs), launch barges,
tugs, passenger vessels and Fast Patrol Vessels (FPVs). We are currently building India's first Indigenous
Aircraft Carrier (IAC) for the Indian Navy. We have also grown our ship repair operations and are the only
commercial shipyard to have undertaken repair work of Indian Navy's aircraft carriers, the INS Viraat and INS
Vikramaditya.

Our diversified offerings to the Indian clients engaged in the defence sector and to clients engaged in the
commercial sector worldwide have allowed us to successfully adapt to the cyclical fluctuations of our industry.
Over the last five Fiscals, the break-down of our average operating revenues is set out below:

Clients engaged in the

Activity Commercial clients
defence sector
Shipbuilding 69.44% 12.68%
Ship repair 10.42% 6.94%
Other operating revenue 0.48% 0.04%

Our current shipbuilding order book includes Phase-II of the IAC for the Indian Navy, two 500 passenger cum
150 ton cargo vessels and two 1,200 passenger cum 1,000 ton cargo vessels for the Andaman and Nicobar
Administration (A&N Administration) and a vessel for one of the Government of India's (GoI) projects.
Our current ship repair order book includes vessels from our key clients.

We recently delivered a two Roll-On/Roll-Off (Ro-Ro) vessels to the Kochi Municipal Corporation.

We are a wholly-owned GoI company, incorporated on March 29, 1972 and were conferred the 'Miniratna' status
in 2008, by the Department of Public Enterprises, GoI. Our shipyard is strategically located along the west coast
of India, midway on the main sea route connecting Europe, West Asia and the Pacific Rim, a busy international

334
maritime route. In addition, our shipyard is located close to the Kochi port as well as to offshore oil fields on the
western coast of India and relatively close to the Middle East.

We commenced our operations in 1975 and have over four decades of experience in shipbuilding. We have in
the past delivered two of Indias largest double hull oil tankers, each of 92,000 DWT (Source: CRISIL Report)
to the Shipping Corporation of India (SCI). Over the years, we have successfully responded to fluctuations in
the shipbuilding requirements of the markets we operate in and have evolved from building bulk carriers to
building smaller and more technically sophisticated vessels such as PSVs and AHTSs. We have worked with
several leading technology firms in our industry including Rolls Royce Marine (Norway), and GTT (Gaztransport
& Technigaz) SA (GTT). We believe this has added to our credibility in the international markets. Our key
shipbuilding clients include the Indian Navy, the Indian Coast Guard and the SCI. We have also exported 45
ships to various commercial clients outside India such as NPCC, the Clipper Group (Bahamas) and Vroon
Offshore (Netherlands) and SIGBA AS (Norway).

We began our ship repair operations in 1978 and have undertaken repairs of various types of vessels including
upgradation of ships of the oil exploration industry as well as periodical maintenance, repairs and life extension
of ships. Our shipyard has, over the years, developed capabilities to handle various repair jobs. We have entered
into MoUs with various clients including with the Lakshadweep Development Corporation Limited (LDCL),
Directorate General of Lighthouses and Lightships (DGLL) and the Dredging Corporation of India (DCI)
giving us the opportunity to undertake ship repair work for these organisations on a bulk volume basis. Our key
ship repair clients include the Indian Navy, the Indian Coast Guard, SCI, the Oil & Natural Gas Corporation
(ONGC) and DCI. We have also partnered with Techcross Inc. for technical support, engineering, service
support and sharing of information in relation to the Ballast Water Treatment System (BWTS) products.

Our Marine Engineering Training Institute at Kochi began in 1993, where we conduct marine engineering training
programs. These programs are approved by Director General of Shipping (DGS), GoI. We also operate a
material testing laboratory, which was established in 1972. Our material testing laboratory has been accredited
by the National Accreditation Board for Testing and Calibration Laboratories (NABL) and is one of the leading
laboratories in Kerala in the field of chemical, mechanical and non-destructive testing of various materials
including metals, welds and alloys.

We have several certifications including the ISO 9001:2008 Quality Management System, ISO 14001:2004 -
Environmental Management System and OHSAS 18001:2007 Occupational Health and Safety Management
System. Our listed debentures have been rated AA+ by since 2014 by various agencies including India Ratings
and Research Private Limited (IRRPL) and CARE. We were also adjudged the Shipbuilding Company of the
Year in 2015 by the Gateway Awards. For further details of awards we have received, see History and Certain
Corporate Matters Awards and Recognition on page 147.

Our Company has posted profits continuously in the last five Fiscals. Our total income and PAT (before other
comprehensive income) has increased from `16,604.52 million and `692.82 million respectively, in Fiscal 2015
to `22,085.01 million and `3,121.82 million, respectively, in Fiscal 2017 at a CAGR of 15.33% and 112.27%,
respectively.

Significant factors affecting our results of operations

The following is a discussion of certain factors that have had, and continue to have, a significant effect on our
financial results:

Global and domestic demand and pricing for commercial and defence vessels

Demand for commercial vessels

Demand for commercial vessels of the type that we manufacture and sell depends principally upon overall trends
in the commercial shipping industry. The principal factors affecting shipbuilding demand in the segments in which
we operate include:

Global GDP growth and seaborne trade growth;

Prevailing commercial freight rates;
Age and condition of existing fleet of commercial vessels;

335
 The cost of building new vessels compared to the cost of purchasing and/or repairing existing vessels;
Changes in laws or regulations that affect the types of ships that can be used to transport specified cargo, such
as crude oil; and
Viability of other modes of transport.

We believe that growth in the global economy and increases in world trade have brought about the recent growth
in the shipping industry and increased demand for vessels. Bulk carrier fleet demand is affected primarily by
growth in global seaborne trade. Bulk carrier operators have enjoyed robust freight rates in the last few years and
have steadily increased their fleets to take advantage of these favourable freight rates. We believe that the
Government of India intends to promote inland waterways and marine transportation with the development of 101
inland waterways, which may lead to the increase in demand for dredgers and small bulk carrier vessels.

We also expect a growth in demand for commercial vessels from regional port trusts, Indian PSUs and corporates
globally.

Demand for defence vessels

We expect a steady growth in demand for vessels for clients engaged in the defence sector in the near to short
term due to India's stated defence procurement policy. We believe that our leading position as a commercial
shipyard in India, multiple offerings and advanced capabilities put us in a good position to benefit from the recent
Make in India initiative introduced by the GoI pursuant to which a steady pipeline of future orders and
opportunities is expected from the defence sector as well as Indian PSUs.

The IAC we are building for the Indian Navy will form a substantial portion of our order book in the next few
years.

Ship-repair

Ship-repair is a key component of our business, in addition to shipbuilding, as we believe it provides us with good
margins. We enjoy a degree of exclusivity in the ship-repair business as only few of our competitors in India have
a ship-repair offering of our size and capability. We believe that the GoI intends to promote inland waterways and
marine transportation, which may lead to growth in the number of ship-repair orders. To be able to cater to this
growing demand, we are in the process of setting up the ISRF, a new facility exclusively for ship-repairing near
our existing premises.

Pricing

New vessel prices are largely determined by the supply of shipbuilding berths and demand for new vessels.
Various other factors also influence the price of new vessels, including:

Vessel prices vary according to the particular specifications of the new vessel. For example, custom designed
vessels built to meet a buyers specific requirements typically cost more than ships ordered in accordance
with a shipyards standard specifications;

Certain shipbuilding countries have a competitive advantage over their competitors due to lower costs,
enabling their shipyards to offer customers lower prices. We benefit from low-cost skilled labour vis--vis
overseas yards and various incentives and subsidies the Indian government has offered and intends to offer
in the future; and

The size of a particular order can also have an impact on price. Shipbuilders can achieve economies of scale
associated with larger orders, both in respect to the size of the vessel and the number of vessels, and therefore
are generally willing to offer price discounts for larger orders.

New vessel prices for different ship types move, to a large extent, in parallel with one another so that a reduced
demand in one sector may reduce prices in another sector. New vessel prices are a function of the supply of berths
to the whole market and not just to individual sectors.

Capacity limitations

336
Our production capacity is limited by, amongst other things, the size of our shipyards, the number, size and
capacities of our slipways, berths, docks (including the New Dry Dock and the ISRF which are under construction)
and our plant and equipment. In addition, the size and capacity of the vessels we construct is limited by the
locations at which we operate. Currently, we are limited to the construction of vessels of up to 110,000 DWT and
ship-repairing of up to 125,000 DWT at our existing facilities. These limitations have restricted our ability to
expand our business by constructing larger vessels, for which we believe there is greater demand and on which
we believe we can achieve better profit margins, and by increasing our annual output.

Upon completion of the New Dry Dock, we anticipate that we will be able to build higher capacity vessels and
repair of Offshore Rigs. See Risk Factors - We cannot assure you that our proposed Dry Dock or International
Ship Repair Facility will become operational as scheduled, or at all, or operate as efficiently as planned. We have
not, as on date of this Red Herring Prospectus, obtained certain licenses or approvals for our proposed ISRF
project for which funds are being raised through the Issue. Our Company shall transfer the Net Proceeds assigned
for the proposed ISRF project to a separate bank account and we shall incur all expenditure on the ISRF project
through internal accruals till the time such pending approvals are received. Further, if we are unable to
commission our new proposed Dry Dock or the ISRF in a timely manner or without cost overruns, our business,
results of operations and financial condition may be adversely affected. on page 19 for a description of certain
risks related to our New Dry Dock.

Order backlog and new orders

We accept orders for different types of ships based on a number of factors, including:

the margins we expect to achieve on the different types of vessels we construct;

the reputation of the ship-owners placing the orders;
our projected capacity utilisation level during the period in which the vessel would be required to be
constructed; and
status of order book and order backlog at the time of receiving orders.

The new orders that we receive for the construction of vessels and our order backlog, or order book, have a
significant effect on our future revenues. We generally accept orders for construction of vessels to be delivered
up to 12 months to 48 months from the date of the order. As of June 30, 2017, we had orders for vessels to be
delivered from 2017 through 2020.

Productivity

Our production volumes, margins and profitability depend to a significant extent on our production efficiencies.
We use a combination of man-hours available and our tonnage capacity to estimate our productivity. Our
productivity is also affected by the number of hours we operate. We are constrained in our ability to increase the
number of shifts at our shipyard. Although we have not experienced any significant shutdowns in the past, any
significant shutdowns in the future would adversely affect our productivity.

Cost of skilled labour

Competition for skilled shipyard labour and engineers in India is intense and as we and others expand our and
their operations, this competition may increase. We may from time to time, experience an inability to attract and
retain highly skilled employees or increased costs to do so. Labour shortages could increase our production cost
and hinder our productivity and ability to meet our customers delivery schedule. Further, we utilise subcontract
labour and production workers in our shipyard on a regular basis. In the event that we are unable to secure required
subcontract labour and production workers at an acceptable cost or with the required skill sets, we may face an
increase in cost, delay in delivery schedule and a decrease in quality of our vessels which could lead to an adverse
impact on our results of operations.

Changes in Segment Contribution to Revenue

The contribution of a particular segment to our total revenue for each year depends on the orders we receive from
customers, the scheduled delivery dates of vessels and the contract prices that we are able to secure for the different
types of vessels. A major portion of our order book in the near-term will be the IAC we are building for the Indian

337
Navy. The division of our revenues from defence and commercial projects depends on our order book. Once our
New Dry Dock is ready, we will able to build other types of vessels as well given our increased capacity and we
plan to increase our product lines to build larger, more complex vessels with higher profit margins and more
advanced technology. Results of our performance may change as the mix of our vessels changes and our past
performance may not be indicative of our future results. We expect a greater volume of ship repair orders in the
near future which may result in lower revenue but higher margins.

Depreciation and amortisation expenses

We had net carrying amount of fixed assets of `3,706.12 million as of March 31, 2017 and `3,702.19 million as
of March 31, 2016, that was subject to depreciation. Our total depreciation and amortisation expenses in Fiscal
2017, Fiscal 2016 and Fiscal 2015 were `385.11 million, `371.93 million, `376.98 million and respectively. We
expect our depreciation expenses to increase as a result of the construction of our New Dry Dock and ISRF.

Taxation

The Government of India has proposed a comprehensive national GST regime that will combine taxes and levies
by the Central and state Governments into a unified rate structure. Given the limited availability of information in
the public domain concerning GST, we have not been able to do an impact analysis of GST on our business and
results of operations and we are unable to provide any assurance as to the tax regime following implementation
of GST. The implementation of this new structure may be affected by any disagreement between certain state
Governments, which could create uncertainty. Any such future amendments may affect our overall tax efficiency,
and may result in significant additional taxes becoming payable.

Significant Accounting Policies

1.1 Statement of compliance

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Ind AS as notified under the
Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 read with Section 133 of the Companies Act,
2013. In accordance with the notification issued by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs, the Company has
adopted Indian Accounting Standards (referred to as Ind AS) notified under the Companies (Indian
Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 with effect from 1 st April 2016. Previous period have been restated
to Ind AS. In accordance with Ind AS 101 First-time Adoption of Indian Accounting Standard, the
Company has presented a reconciliation from the presentation of financial statements under Accounting
Standards notified under the Companies (Accounting Standards) Rules, 2006 (Previous GAAP) to Ind
AS, of Shareholders equity as at 31st March 2016 and 1st April 2015 and of the comprehensive net
income for the year ended 31st March 2016.

1.2 Basis of preparation of Financial Statements

These financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for certain financial
instruments which are measured at fair values at the end of each reporting period, as explained in the
accounting policies below. Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given
in exchange for goods and services. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid
to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

1.3 Use of estimates and judgements

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with the Ind AS requires management to make
judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported
amounts of assets, liabilities and disclosures as at date of the financial statements and the reported
amounts of the revenues and expenses for the years presented. The estimates and associated assumptions
are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may
differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting
estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that
period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future
periods.

338
1.4 Critical Accounting estimates and judgements:

The application of significant accounting policies that require critical accounting estimates involving
complex and subjective judgements and the use of assumptions in the financial statements have been
disclosed below:

Useful lives of property, plant and equipment

The Company reviews the estimated useful lives and residual values of property, plant and equipment at
the end of each reporting period. Assumptions are also made as to whether an item meets the description
of asset so as to warrant its capitalisation and which component of the asset may be capitalised.
Reassessment of life may result in change in depreciation expense in future periods.

Valuation of deferred tax assets

The Company reviews the carrying amount of deferred tax assets at the end of each reporting period.
Significant judgements are involved in determining the elements of deferred tax items.

Impairment of unquoted investments

The Company reviews its carrying value of investments annually, or more frequently when there is
indication for impairment. If the recoverable amount is less than its carrying amount, the impairment loss
is accounted for.

Recognition and measurement of provisions

The recognition and measurement of provisions are based on the assessment of the probability of an
outflow of resources and on past experience and circumstance known at the balance sheet date. The actual
outflow of resources at a future date may therefore vary from the figure included in provisions.

Provision towards Guarantee repairs

A provision is made towards guarantee repairs/claims in respect of newly built ships/small crafts
delivered and repaired ships on the basis of the technical estimation done by the Company. The guarantee
claims received from the ship owners are reviewed every year till settlement of the same. In case of a
shortfall in the provision made earlier, additional provisions are made.

Contingencies and commitments

In the normal course of business, contingent liabilities may arise from litigations and other claims against
the Company. Where the potential liabilities have a low probability of crystallizing or are very difficult
to quantify reliably, we treat them as contingent liabilities. Such liabilities are disclosed in the notes but
are not provided for in the financial statements. Although there can be no assurance regarding the final
outcome of the legal proceedings, we do not expect them to have a materially adverse impact on our
financial position or profitability.

Provision for doubtful debts

The Company makes provisions for doubtful debts based on an assessment of the recoverability of trade
and other receivables. The identification of doubtful debts requires use of judgement and estimates.
Where the expectation is different from the original estimate, such difference will impact the carrying
value of the trade and other receivables and doubtful debts expenses in the period in which such estimate
has been changed.

Provision for inventories

Management reviews the inventory age listing on a periodic basis. This review involves comparison of
the carrying value of the aged inventory items with the respective net realisable value. The purpose is to
ascertain whether a provision is required to be made in the financial statements for any obsolete and
slow-moving items and that adequate provision for obsolete and slow-moving inventories has been made
in the financial statements.

339
 Revenue Recognition

The Company uses the percentage of completion method in accounting for its fixed price contracts. The
use of the percentage of completion method requires the Company to estimate the costs expended to date
as a proportion to the total cost to be expended on a project considering the physical progress or financial
progress whichever is lower. Provision for estimated losses if any on the uncompleted part of the
contracts are provided in the period in which such losses become probable based on the expected contract
estimates at the reporting date.

Recognition and measurement of defined benefit obligations

The obligation arising from defined benefit plan is determined on the basis of actuarial assumptions. Key
actuarial assumptions include discount rate, trends in salary escalation and vested future benefits and life
expectancy. The discount rate is determined with reference to market yields at the end of the reporting
period on the Government bonds. The period to maturity of the underlying bonds correspond to the
probable maturity of the post employment benefit obligations.

1.5 Property, Plant and Equipment (PPE)

On adoption of Ind AS, the Company retained the carrying value for all of its property , plant and
equipment as recognised in the financial statements as at the date of transition to Ind AS measured as per
the previous GAAP and used that as its deemed cost as permitted by Ind AS 101 'First time adoption of
Indian Accounting Standards'.

PPE are initially recognised at cost. The initial cost of PPE comprises its purchase price, and any costs
directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of
operating in the manner intended by management including non refundable duties and taxes net of any
trade discounts and rebates. The cost of PPE also includes interest on borrowings (borrowing cost directly
attributable to acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets) upto initial recognition. PPE
are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation (other than free hold land which are stated at cost) and
impairment losses, if any.

Subsequent costs are included in the asset's carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as
appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to
the Company and the cost of the items are material and can be measured reliably. The carrying amount
of any component accounted for as a separate asset is derecognised when replaced. All other repairs and
maintenance are charged to Statement of profit and loss during the reporting period in which they are
incurred.

1.6 Capital work in progress and intangible assets under development:

Capital work in progress and intangible assets under development are property, plant and equipment that
are not yet ready for their intended use at the reporting date, which are carried at cost, comprising direct
cost, related incidental expenses and attributable borrowing cost.

1.7 Depreciation

Depreciation on property, plant and equipment is provided on straight-line method based on useful life
of the asset as prescribed in Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013.

For the assets acquired from Cochin Port Trust for International Ship Repair Facility (ISRF), depreciation
is provided on the basis of remaining useful life as assessed by technical experts.

An item of property, plant and equipment and any significant part initially recognised is derecognised
upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain/loss
arising on derecognition of the asset is included in the Statement of profit and loss when the asset is
derecognised. Fully depreciated assets still in use are retained in financial Statements at residual value .

Depreciation method, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted
prospectively, if appropriate.

340
1.8 Intangible Assets

Design development: Cost incurred on Design Development which are not directly chargeable on a
product are capitalized as 'Intangible Asset' and amortised on a straight-line basis over a period of five
years.

Software: Cost of software which is not an integral part of the related hardware acquired for internal use
is capitalised as intangible asset and amortised on a straight-line basis over a period of three years.

Right to use: Up- front fee paid for securing right to use of land and other facility is capitalized as
intangible asset and amortised on a straight line basis over the period of lease for which the right has
been obtained.

Internally generated procedure: Cost of internally generated weld procedure is capitalized as 'Intangible
Asset' and amortised on a straight-line basis over a period of three years.

1.9 Impairment of Assets

The Company assesses the impairment of assets with reference to each cash generating unit, at each
Balance Sheet date. If events or changes in circumstances based on internal and external factors indicate
that the carrying value may not be recoverable in full, the loss on account and the recoverable amount, is
accounted for accordingly. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's fair value less costs of
disposal and value in use.

1.10 Investments

Investments that are readily realizable and are intended to be held for not more than one year from the
date of such investments are classified as current investments. All other investments are classified as Non
current.

Current investments are carried at lower of cost and fair value. Non-current investments are valued at
cost unless there is a permanent diminution in the value thereof.

1.11 Inventories

(a) Raw materials, components, stores and spares are valued at weighted average cost method or net
realisable value whichever is lower. Provision for obsolescence / non- usability / deterioration is
determined on the basis of technical assessment made by the management. Goods in transit is valued at
lower of cost or net realisable value. Stock of materials in respect of construction of defence vessels
wherein the cost incurred is reimbursed by the owner are shown as reduction from the advances paid by
the owner for construction of the vessel.

(b) Work in progress:

Work in progress Ship Building:- Work in progress is recognised only when the percentage of physical
completion is less than the financial completion, in which case the cost proportionate to excess of
percentage of financial completion over physical completion is treated as Work in progress. In the case
of Indigenous Aircraft Carrier since all the materials belongs to Indian Navy, work in progress is not
recognized.

Work in progress of ships/offshore structures under repair, which have not reached 75% stage of physical
completion and general engineering jobs are valued at cost. Work- in- progress of ships where physical
construction has not started is also valued at cost.

(c) Loose tools stock are valued at cost and tools in use are revalued after providing for loss on
revaluation estimated at 30% of book value.

(d) Stock of scrap is valued at net realizable value after adjusting customs duty, if any, payable on the
scrap.

1.12 Financial instruments

341
Trade Receivables

The Company assesses at each Balance Sheet date whether a financial asset or a group of financial asset
is impaired. Ind AS 109 requires expected credit loss to be measured through a loss allowance. The
Company recognises lifetime expected credit losses for all trade receivables that do not constitute a
financing transaction. Impairment loss allowance is based on a simplified approach as permitted by Ind
AS 109. As a practical expedient, the company uses a provision matrix to determine the impairment loss
on the portfolio of its trade receivables.

Full provision is made for all trade receivables considered doubtful of recovery when the debt is more
than three years or if it is certain that the debt is not recoverable.

Where debts are disputed in legal proceedings, provision is made if any decision is given against the
company even if the same is taken up on appeal to higher authorities/courts.

Impairment loss allowance (or reversal) that is required to be recognised at the reporting date is
recognised as an impairment loss or gain in the Statement of Profit & Loss Account.

Financial assets and liabilities are recognised when the Company becomes a party to the contractual
provisions of the instrument. Financial assets and liabilities are initially measured at fair value.
Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial
liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss) are added
to or deducted from the fair value measured on initial recognition of financial asset or financial liability.

Cash and cash equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid financial instruments, which are readily convertible into known
amounts of cash that are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value and having original maturities
of three months or less from the date of purchase, to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents
consist of balances with banks which are unrestricted for withdrawal and usage.

Financial assets at amortised cost

Financial assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost if these financial assets are held within a
business whose objective is to hold these assets in order to collect contractual cash flows and the
contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments
of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI)

Financial assets are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if these financial assets
are held within a business whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows that give
rise on specified dates to solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding
and by selling financial assets.

The Company has made an irrevocable election to present subsequent changes in the fair value of equity
investments not held for trading in Other Comprehensive Income.

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)

Financial assets are measured at fair value through profit or loss unless it is measured at amortised cost
or at fair value through other comprehensive income on initial recognition. The transaction costs directly
attributable to the acquisition of financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are
immediately recognised in profit or loss.

Financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.

Off setting of financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are off set and the net amount is reported in financial statements
if there is a currently enforceable legal right to off set the recognised amounts and there is an intention

342
 to settle on a net basis, to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.

1.13 Foreign Currency Transactions

The financial statements are presented in Indian Rupees (INR), which is the functional currency and
presentation currency of the Company.

a. Foreign Currency Transactions:

Foreign exchange transactions are recorded in functional currency adopting the exchange rate
prevailing on the dates of respective transactions. Monetary items denominated in foreign
currencies at the year end are re-measured at the exchange rate prevailing on the balance sheet
date. Non monetary foreign currency items are carried at cost. Any income or expense on
account of exchange difference either on settlement or on restatement is recognised in the
statement of Profit and Loss.

b. Derivative instruments and hedge accounting:

The Company designates certain foreign exchange forward contracts as hedge instruments in
respect of foreign exchange risks. These hedges are accounted for as cash flow hedges.
Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value on the date a derivative contact is entered into
and are subsequently re-measured to their fair value at the end of each reporting period.

The use of foreign currency and derivative contracts is governed by the Companys foreign
exchange risk management policy approved by the Board of Directors which provide written
directives on the use of such financial derivatives consistent with the Companys risk
management strategy. The company does not use derivative financial instruments for
speculative purposes.

The hedge instruments are designated and documented as hedges at the inception of the contract.
The effectiveness of hedge instruments to reduce the risk associated with the foreign currency
exposure that is being hedged is assessed and measured at inception and on an ongoing basis.
The ineffective portion of designated hedges are recognised immediately in the Statement of
Profit and Loss.

The effective portion of change in the fair value of the designated hedging instrument is
recognised in the Other Comprehensive Income and accumulated under the heading cash flow
hedge reserve.

Hedge accounting is discontinued when the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated or
exercised without replacement or rollover (as part of hedging strategy), or if its designation as
a hedge is revoked, or when the hedge no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting. Any
gain or loss recognised in Other Comprehensive Income and accumulated in equity till that time
remains and is recognised in Statement of Profit and Loss when the forecasted transaction
ultimately affects the profit or loss. When a forecasted transaction is no longer expected to occur,
the cumulative gain or loss accumulated in equity is transferred to the Statement of Profit and
Loss.

1.14 Advance/progress payments received

Advance/progress payments received from customers in respect of repair work of ships/offshore

structures are shown as deduction from the amount of work in progress in respect of income recognized
under proportionate completion method. In the case of ship building, the advance payment received is
adjusted only when the ship is invoiced.

1.15 Provision, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent assets

A provision is recognised if, as a result of a past event, the Company has a present legal obligation that
can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle
the obligation. Provisions (excluding retirement benefits and compensated leave) are not discounted to
its present value and are determined by the best estimate of the outflow of economic benefits required to
settle the obligation at the reporting date. These are reviewed at each reporting date adjusted to reflect

343
 the current best estimates.

Provision towards guarantee claims in respect of ships/ small crafts delivered wherever provided
/maintained is based on technical estimation. For ships delivered, guarantee claims are covered by way
of insurance policies covering the guarantee period on case to case basis, where ever required.

Contingent liability is disclosed when the company has a possible obligation or a present obligation and
it is probable that a cash flow will not be required to settle the obligation.

Contingent assets are not disclosed in the financial statements unless an inflow of economic benefits is
probable.

1.16 Revenue Recognition

a) Contracts for the construction of ships and small crafts (Other than Indigenous Aircraft
Carrier)

The income from ship building is recognized on percentage of completion method, in the proportion the
cost incurred for the work performed up to the reporting date bear to the estimated total contract cost,
considering the physical progress or financial progress, whichever is lower. Where current estimates of
total contract costs and revenue indicate a loss, provision is made for the entire loss, irrespective of the
amount of work done.

b) Construction of Indigenous Aircraft Carrier

In the case of construction of IAC which is partly fixed price basis and partly cost plus basis, the income
from fixed price is recognised on the percentage of completion method.

Mark up from cost plus part of contract activities for materials and design outsourcing are recognised
when payments towards the same are made. Cost of materials, value of design outsourcing and other
expenses incurred for the vessel which are recoverable separately from Navy is charged off to statement
of Profit and Loss when materials are consumed/activities are performed/expenses are incurred and are
grossed up with the value of work done and recognised as income.

c) Contracts for repair of ships/ Offshore structures:

Income from repair of ships /Offshore structures is recognized based on proportionate completion method
when proportionate performance of each ship repair activity exceeds 75% after taking into consideration
possible contingencies with reference to the realizable value of work done. The proportionate progress
is measured by the Company's technical evaluation of the percentage of physical completion of each job.
In the case of ship repair contracts completed and invoices settled during the year, income recognized is
net of reductions due to price variation admitted. In the case of unsettled invoices, the income is
recognised net of estimated amount of reductions. Differences, if any, on settlement are adjusted against
income in the year of settlement.

d) Liquidated damages and interest on advances

No income has been recognized on account of (a) interest on advances given and (b) liquidated damages,
where the levies depend on decisions regarding force majeure condition of contract. These are accounted
for on completion of contracts and / or when final decisions are taken.

e) Accounting for insurance claims

(i) Warranty/Builder Risk claims

In the case of guarantee defects covered under warranty insurance policies or claims under builders risk
Insurance Policies, the insurance claims lodged will be recognized in the accounts in the year in which
the survey is completed and the probable amount of settlement intimated by the insurance Company.

(ii) Other Insurance Policies

In the case of other Insurance Policies like Asset Insurance, Transit Insurance, Marine Insurance, Cash

344
 Insurance etc., the claims are recognized in the accounts on settlement of the claims by way of receipt of
the amount from the Insurance Company.

f) Others

Dividend income is recognized when the Company's right to receive payment has been established.

1.17 Employee benefits

Employee benefits consist of salaries and wages contribution to provident fund, superannuation fund,
gratuity fund, compensated absences and towards medical assistance.

Post-employment benefit plans

Defined Contribution plans

Defined contribution to Employees Pension scheme for eligible employees are made to CSL
Superannuation Pension Trust for Executives and Supervisors/CSL Workmen Pension Trust Pension
Trusts and are charged as expense as they fall due. Such benefits are classified as Defined Contribution
Schemes as the Company does not carry any further obligations, apart from the contributions made.

The Company also makes contribution towards provident fund, in substance a defined contribution
retirement benefit plan. The provident fund is administered by the Trustees of the Cochin Shipyard
Limited Employees Contributory Provident Fund Trust. The rules of the Companys provident fund
administered by the Trust, require that if the Board of Trustees are unable to pay interest at the rate
declared by the Employees Provident Fund by the Government under para 60 of the Employees
Provident Fund Scheme, 1952 for the reason that the return on investment is less or for any other reason,
then the deficiency shall be made good by the Company. Having regard to the assets of the fund and the
return on the investments, the Company does not expect any deficiency as at the year end.

The Company also makes contribution towards Employees Medical Assistance Trusts which are charged
as expense as they fall due. Such benefits are classified as Defined Contribution Schemes as the Company
does not carry any further obligations, apart from the contributions made.

Defined benefit plans

The Company provides for gratuity, a defined benefit retirement plan covering eligible employees. The
liability or asset recognised in the balance sheet in respect of its defined benefit plan is the present value
of the defined benefit obligation at the end of the reporting period less the fair value of plan assets. The
defined benefit obligation is calculated annually by actuaries using the projected unit credit method.

The present value of the said obligation is determined by discounting the estimated future cash outflows,
using market yields of government bonds that have tenure approximating the tenures of the related
liability.

The interest income / (expense) are calculated by applying the discount rate to the net defined benefit
liability or asset. The net interest income / (expense) on the net defined benefit liability or asset is
recognised in the Statement of Profit and loss.

Remeasurement gains and losses arising from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial
assumptions are recognised in the period in which they occur, directly in other comprehensive income.
They are included in retained earnings in the Statement of Changes in Equity and in the Balance Sheet.

Changes in the present value of the defined benefit obligation resulting from plan amendments or
curtailments are recognised immediately in Statement of profit and loss as past service cost.

Other employee benefits

Compensated absences

The Company has a policy on compensated absence which are both accumulating and non-accumulating
in nature. The expected cost of accumulating compensated absence is determined by Actuarial valuation

345
 performed by an independent actuary at each Balance Sheet date using projected unit credit method on
the additional amount expected to be paid/availed as a result of unused entitlement that has accumulated
at the Balance Sheet date. Expense on non-accumulating compensated absence is recognised in the period
in which the absences occur.

1.18 Borrowing cost

General and specific borrowing costs directly attributable to acquisition/ construction or production of
qualifying assets (net of income earned on temporary deployment of funds) are capitalized as part of cost
of such assets upto the date when such assets are ready for intended use. A qualifying asset is one that
necessarily takes substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use. All other borrowing costs
are charged to the Statement of Profit and Loss in the period in which they are incurred.

1.19 Leases
As a lessee:

Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of lease transfer substantially all the risks and
rewards of ownership to the lessee. Leases where a significant portion of the risks and rewards of
ownership are retained by the lessor are classified as operating leases.

(i) Operating Lease:

Operating lease payments are recognized as an expense in the Statement of Profit and Loss on a straight-
line basis over the lease term except where another systematic basis is more representative of the time
pattern in which economic benefits from leased assets are consumed or unless the lease agreement
explicitly states that increase is on account of inflation

(ii) Finance Lease:

Assets taken on lease by the Company in its capacity as lessee, where the Company has substantially all
the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as finance lease. Such leases are capitalised at the
inception of the lease at lower of the fair value or the present value of the minimum lease payments and
a liability is recognised for an equivalent amount. Each lease rental paid is allocated between the liability
and the interest cost so as to obtain a constant periodic rate of interest on the outstanding liability for
each year.

1.20 Prior period adjustment

Prior period adjustments due to errors, having material impact on the financial affairs of the Company,
are corrected retrospectively by restating the comparative amounts for prior periods presented in which
the error occurred or if the error occurred before the earliest period presented, by restating the opening
statement of financial position.

1.21 Taxes on Income

Income tax

Income tax expense comprises current tax expense and the net change in the deferred tax asset or liability
during the year.Current and deferred taxes are recognised in Statement of Profit and Loss, except when
they relate to items that are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which
case, the current and deferred tax are also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity,
respectively.

Current tax

Current tax is measured at the amount of tax expected to be payable on the taxable income for the year
as determined in accordance with the provisions of the Income Tax Act, 1961.Current tax assets and
current tax liabilities are off set when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognized amounts
and there is an intention to settle the asset and the liability on a net basis.

Deferred tax

346
 Deferred income tax is recognised using the Balance Sheet approach. Deferred income tax assets and
liabilities are recognised for deductible and taxable temporary differences arising between the tax base
of assets and liabilities and their carrying amount, except when the deferred income tax arises from the
initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and affects
neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss at the time of the transaction.

Deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that either future taxable profits
or reversal of deferred tax liabilities will be available, against which the deductible temporary
differences, and the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised.

The carrying amount of a deferred tax asset shall be reviewed at the end of each reporting date and
reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow
all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilised.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted
or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period and are expected to apply when the related
deferred tax asset is realised or the deferred tax liability is settled.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are off set when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax
assets and liabilities and when the deferred tax balances relate to the same taxation authority.

1.22 Earnings Per Share

Basic and Diluted Earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net profit attributable to equity
shareholders by the weighted average number of equity shares/dilutive potential equity shares
outstanding as at the end of the reporting period as the case may be.

1.23 Segment Reporting

Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which discrete financial information
is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker, in deciding how to allocate
resources and assessing performance. The Companys chief operating decision maker is the Chairman &
Managing Director.

The Company has identified business segments (industry practice) as reportable segments. The business
segments comprise: 1) Ship Building and 2) Repair of Ships/offshore structures.

Segment revenue, segment expenses, segment assets and segment liabilities have been identified to
segments on the basis of their relationship to the operating activities of the segment. Revenue, expenses,
assets and liabilities which relate to the Company as a whole and are not allocable to segments on a
reasonable basis have been included under unallocated revenue / expenses / assets / liabilities.

1.24 Cash flow statement

Cash Flows are reported using the Indirect Method, whereby profit/loss before tax is adjusted for the
effect of transactions of non-cash nature and any deferrals or accruals of past or future cash receipts or
payments and items of income or expenses associated with investing or financial cash flows. Cash flows
from operating, investing and financial activities of the Company are segregated based on the available
information.

For the purpose of cash flow statement, Cash and cash equivalent comprise cash at banks and on hand
and short-term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less, which are subject to an
insignificant risk of changes in value, net of outstanding bank overdrafts, if any. Bank overdrafts are
disclosed within borrowings in current liabilities in the Balance Sheet

1.25 Dividend to equity shareholders

Dividend to equity shareholders is recognised as a liability and deducted from shareholders equity, in
the period in which the dividends are approved by the equity shareholders in the general meeting.

1.26 Recent accounting pronouncements - Standards issued but not yet effective

347
 Standards issued but not yet effective in March 2017, the Ministry of Corporate Affairs issued the
Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) (Amendments) Rules, 2017, notifying amendments to Ind AS
7, Statement of Cash Flows and Ind AS 102, Share-based payment. These amendments are in
accordance with the recent amendments made by International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) to
IAS 7, Statement of Cash Flows and IFRS 2, Share-based payment, respectively. The amendments
are applicable from 1st April, 2017.

Amendment to Ind AS 7:

The amendment to Ind AS 7 requires the entities to provide disclosures that enable users of financial
statements to evaluate changes in liabilities arising from financing activities, including both changes
arising from cash flows and non-cash changes, suggesting inclusion of a reconciliation between the
opening and closing balances in the Balance Sheet for liabilities arising from financing activities, to meet
the disclosure requirement.

The Company is evaluating the requirements of the amendment and the effect on the financial statements
is being evaluated.

Amendment to Ind AS 102:

The amendment to Ind AS 102 provides specific guidance to measurement of cash-settled awards,
modification of cash settled awards and awards that include a net settlement feature in respect of
withholding taxes. It clarifies that the fair value of cash-settled awards is determined on a basis consistent
with that used for equity-settled awards. Market-based performance conditions and non-vesting
conditions are reflected in the fair values, but non-market performance conditions and service vesting
conditions are reflected in the estimate of the number of awards expected to vest. Also, the amendment
clarifies that if the terms and conditions of a cash-settled share-based payment transaction are modified
with the result that it becomes an equity-settled share-based payment transaction, the transaction is
accounted for as such from the date of the modification. Further, the amendment requires the award that
include a net settlement feature in respect of withholding taxes to be treated as equity-settled in its
entirety. The cash payment to the tax authority is treated as if it was part of an equity settlement.

The requirements of the amendment have no impact on the financial statements as the standard is not
applicable to the Company.

Discussion on the results of operations

Fiscal 2017 compared to Fiscal 2016

Income

Our total income increased to `22,085.01 million in Fiscal 2017 from `20,968.81 million in Fiscal 2016 which
was increased by 5.32% due to the reasons described below:

Revenue from operations: Our revenue from operations increased by 3.49% to `20,594.88 million in Fiscal 2017
from `19,900.07 million in Fiscal 2016. This increase was primarily due to an increase in the revenue from
building the IAC of `1,559.75 million and from repair of ships of `1,796.22 million which was partially off-set
by a decrease in the revenue from building of vessels other than IAC of `2,631.13 million.

Other Income: Our other income also increased by 39.43% to `1,490.13 million in Fiscal 2017 from `1,068.74
million in Fiscal 2016. This increase was primarily due to an increase interest income from bank deposits of
`252.71 million. Our other income as a percentage of total income was 6.75% for Fiscal 2017 as compared to
5.10% for Fiscal 2016.

Expenses

Our total expenses increased by 4.92% to `17,283.30 million in Fiscal 2017 from `16,472.29 million in Fiscal
2016, due the factors described below:

Cost of material consumed: Our cost of material consumed decreased by 4.32% to `10,087.26 million in Fiscal
2017 from `10,543.22 million in Fiscal 2016. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease in the cost of steel
consumed of `591.03 million as a result of lower volume of steel consumption, which was partially offset by an
increase in the cost of bough out components of `207.92 million.

Change in inventory of work in progress: Our change in inventories of work-in progress increased by 15.12% to
(`139.55) million in Fiscal 2017 from (` 164.41) million in Fiscal 2016.

`3,193.67 million in Fiscal 2017 from `1,916.65 million in Fiscal 2016. Our sub contract and other direct expenses
increased due to an increase primarily in the other direct expenses of `1,014.86 million (mainly on account of
one-time additional dredging undertaken for the repair of an aircraft carrier) which was partially offset by a
decrease in the hull insurance of `13.37 million.

Employee benefits expense: Our employee benefits expenses marginally increased by 3.63% to `2,166.65 million
in Fiscal 2017 from `2,090.75 million in Fiscal 2016. Our employee benefits expense marginally increased due

Fiscal 2016. Our finance costs decreased primarily due to a decrease in interest under income tax act of ` 9.70
million and a decrease in bank interest of `4.36 million.

Depreciation and amortisation expense: Our depreciation and amortisation expense marginally increased by
3.54% to `385.11 million in Fiscal 2017 from `371.93 million in Fiscal 2016. Our depreciation and amortisation
expense marginally increased due to increases in depreciation on property, plant and equipment of `9.79 million
and amortisation of intangible assets of `3.66 million.

Other expenses: Our other expenses decreased by 5.71% to `1,344.01 million in Fiscal 2017 from `1,425.42
million in Fiscal 2016. Our other expenses decreased primarily due to decreases in miscellaneous expenses of
`74.71 million, repair and maintenance of plant and machinery of `24.66 million and other repair and maintenance
of `26.66 million, which was partially offset by increases in loss on sale/write off property, plant and equipment
of `40.85 million and hire charges of `31.06 million.

Provision for anticipated losses and expenditure: Our provision for anticipated losses and expenditure decreased
by 16.85% to `140.80 million in Fiscal 2017 from `169.33 million in Fiscal 2016. Our provision for anticipated
losses and expenditure decreased due to a decrease primarily in our provision for loss on ship building of `77.50
million, which was partially offset by an increase primarily in the provision for loss in expenses and contingencies
by `8.61 million.

building the IAC by `3,955.46 million and from repair of vessels by `1,662.50 million which was partially off-
set by a decrease in the revenue from building of other vessels by `1,387.92 million.
Other Income: Our other income also increased by 38.45% to `1,068.74 million in Fiscal 2016 from `771.91

`1,916.65 million in Fiscal 2016 from `1,597.83 million in Fiscal 2015. Our sub contract and other direct expenses

351
increased due to an increase primarily in the expenses of sub contract and other offloaded jobs of `391.92 million
which was partially offset by a decrease in the other direct expenses of `74.39 million.

Employee benefits expense: Our employee benefits expense marginally decreased by 1.77% to `2,090.75 million
in Fiscal 2016 from `2,128.46 million in Fiscal 2015. Our employee benefits expense marginally decreased due

partially offset by an increase in amortization of intangible assets by `11.91 million.

Other expenses: Our other expenses increased by 26.17% to `1,425.42 million in Fiscal 2016 from `1,129.74
million in Fiscal 2015. Our other expenses increased primarily due to an increase in miscellaneous expenses by
`91.08 million, consumption of stores by `71.08 million, which was partially offset by a decrease primarily in
liquidated damages by `97.58 million.

Provision for anticipated losses and expenditure: Our provision for anticipated losses and expenditure decreased
by 36.82% to `169.33 million in Fiscal 2016 from `268.02 million in Fiscal 2015. Our provision for anticipated
losses and expenditure decreased due to a decrease primarily in our provision for expenses and contingencies by
`128.09 million, which was partially offset by an increase primarily in the provision for loss in shipbuilding by
`81.00 million.

Tax expense: Our tax expense increased by 283.61% to `1,579.00 million in Fiscal 2016 from `411.62 million in
Fiscal 2015.

Profit after tax for the year: Due to the factors mentioned above, our profit after tax increased by `2,224.70 million
to `2,917.52 million in Fiscal 2016 from `692.82 million in Fiscal 2015. In Fiscal 2015, IAC formed a major
portion of our shipbuilding order book. Our profits in Fiscal 2015 were significantly lower due to slower pace of
construction of the IAC, reduced dock availability for other projects given the IAC construction leading to lower
productivity and delay in release of funds by the Indian Navy for the IAC project.

Liquidity and capital resources

Over the past three years, we have been able to finance our working capital requirements through cash generated
from our operations and bank loans and facilities. We have relied on cash from internal resources and loans from
banks to finance the expansion of our business and operations.

Our cash and bank balances dipped significantly in Fiscal 2014 and subsequently increased in Fiscal 2015.
Construction of the IAC being a major portion of our shipbuilding order book, our cash and bank balances were
much lower in Fiscal 2014 because there were delays in sanction and release of funds by the Indian Navy in
relation to this project. Moreover, some of the outstanding milestone payments pending from Fiscal 2014 in
relation to IAC were paid by the Indian Navy in Fiscal 2015.

We believe that after taking into account the expected cash to be generated from our business and operations and
the proceeds from our bank loans, we have sufficient working capital for our present requirements and anticipated
requirements for capital expenditures and other cash requirements for 12 months following the date of this Red
Herring Prospectus. As of March 31, 2017, we had `19,912.91 million of cash and bank balances.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

General

Market risk is the risk of loss of future earnings, to fair values or to future cash flows that may result from a change
in the price of a financial instrument. The value of a financial instrument may change as a result of changes in the
foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates, commodity prices, equity prices and other market changes that
affect market risk sensitive instruments. Market risk is attributable to all market risk sensitive financial instruments
including investments, foreign currency payables and debt.

Foreign Exchange Rate Risk

354
Changes in currency exchange rates influence our results of operations. A major portion of our revenues,
particularly relating to our international orders, is denominated in currencies other than Indian Rupees, most
significantly the U.S. dollar. The appreciation of the Indian Rupee against the U.S. Dollar and other foreign
currencies may adversely affect our results of operations. We incur currency transaction risks whenever we enter
into a purchase or sale transaction using a currency other than our functional currency such as in relation to the
import of raw materials. Although we enter into hedging transactions to minimise our currency exchange risks,
there can be no assurance that such measures will enable us to avoid the effect of any adverse fluctuations in the
value of the Indian Rupee against the relevant foreign currencies.

Commodity Price Risk

We are subject to market risks related to the volatility in the price of our raw materials like steel, pipe and paint
and bought out components. Our financial results can be affected significantly by fluctuations in these prices,
which depend on many factors, including demand for these materials, changes in the economy, worldwide
production levels, worldwide inventory levels and disruptions in the supply chain.

Credit Risk

Any scarcity of credit or other financing in India, or worldwide, resulting in an adverse impact on economic
conditions may impinge upon our ability to finance our developments and expansions.

Inflation Risk

Our Company is incorporated in India, and almost all our assets and employees are located in India. As a result
we are highly dependent on prevailing economic conditions in India and our results of operations are significantly
affected by factors influencing the Indian economy. Any increase in inflation in India may adversely affect our
results of operations by increasing our costs such as the price of raw materials, the cost of power and transportation
costs.

Unusual or infrequent events or transactions

As on date, there have been no unusual or infrequent events or transactions including unusual trends on account
of business activity, unusual items of income, change of accounting policies and discretionary reduction of
expenses.

Significant economic changes that materially affected or are likely to affect income from continuing
operations

We operate in a highly regulated industry. Government policies governing the sector in which we operate as well
as the overall growth of the Indian economy has a significant bearing on our operations. Major changes in these
factors can significantly impact income from continuing operations.

There are no significant economic changes that materially affected our Companys operations or are likely to

Known trends or uncertainties that have had or are expected to have a material adverse impact on sales,
revenue or income from continuing operations

Our business has been affected and we expect that it will continue to be affected by the trends identified above in
Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Significant Factors
Affecting Our Results of Operations and the uncertainties described in the section titled Risk Factors on pages
334 and 18, respectively. To our knowledge, except as disclosed in this Red Herring Prospectus, there are no
known factors which we expect to have a material adverse impact on sales, revenue or income from continuing
operations.

Future changes in relationship between costs and revenues, in case of events such as future increase in
labour or material costs or prices that will cause a material change are known

Other than as described in Risk Factors and this section, we believe there are no known factors that might affect
the future relationship between cost and revenue.

which constitutes a major portion of our current order book as of Fiscal 2017 and of our total revenues in Fiscal
2017 and in Fiscal 2016, we are not dependent on any particular supplier or customer.

Significant developments after March 31, 2017 that may affect our future results of operations

India has decided to adopt the Convergence of its existing standards with IFRS not IFRS. These IFRS based/
synchronised Accounting Standards are referred to in India as Ind AS. The Ministry of Corporate Affairs,
Government of India, has through a notification dated February 16, 2015, set out the Ind AS and the timelines for
their implementation. Accordingly, our Company is required to prepare its financial statements in accordance with
Ind AS from April 1, 2016. Given that Ind AS is different in many respects from Indian GAAP under which our
financial statements were prepared until March 31, 2016, our financial statements for the period commencing
from April 1, 2016 may not be fully comparable to our historical financial statements.

See Risk Factor Significant differences exist between Ind AS and Indian GAAP on one hand and other
accounting principles, such as US GAAP and IFRS on the other, which may be material to investors assessments
of our financial condition on page 37. The key highlights of this transition to Ind AS are set out in Significant
Differences Between Indian GAAP and Ind AS on page 326. This is an indicative list of significant line items
only and is provided for convenience only. It is not intended to be an exhaustive list. Investors should seek specific
advice from their advisors in relation to the impact of transition to Ind AS.

Goa Foundation (Petitioner) filed a public interest litigation (writ petition bearing number 460 of
2004), against the Union of India before the Supreme Court of India (the Court) in relation to
operation of certain units which had not obtained prior environmental clearance in contravention of a
Central Government notification dated January 27, 1994. The Court, pursuant to an order dated February
21, 2005, directed the Central Government to issue requisite orders for the closure of all defaulting units
continuing in violation of environmental laws. Accordingly, the Central Government issued an order
dated March 2, 2005, directing the defaulting units to be closed down. The March 2, 2005 order was
subsequently stayed by the Court pursuant to an order dated March 11, 2005 since some of the
applications for the grant of environmental clearance were pending with the Ministry of Environment
and Forests (MoEF). The MoEF subsequently assisted the Court in identification of defaulting units
which were subsequently closed pursuant to an order dated May 11, 2005. The May 11, 2005 order did
not apply to certain coal mines, units which had obtained a valid environmental clearance and units
whose environmental clearance were being deliberated by the MoEF. The Petitioner had subsequently
contended that the MoEF while granting environmental clearances to units situated in close proximity
to wildlife sanctuaries had not considered a decision dated January 21, 2002 of the Indian Board of
Wildlife, to notify the areas within 10 kilometres of the boundaries of national parks and sanctuaries as
eco-sensitive zones (the IBW Decision). The MoEF in its response stated that subsequent to the IBW
Decision, the MoEF had requested all Chief Wildlife Wardens of all States and Union Territories for
initiating measures for identification of suitable areas and submit detailed proposals at the earliest per
the IBW Decision. The MoEF further stated that some of the states had raised a concern that most of
the human habitation and other areas including important cities in these states would come under the
purview of eco-sensitive zones and would adversely affect development. The National Board for
Wildlife in its meeting held on March 17, 2005 had decided that delineation of eco-sensitive areas
would have to be site specific and relate to regulation, rather than prohibition, of specific activities.
The MoEF had also sent a letter dated May 27, 2005 to all the Chief Wildlife Wardens to initiate suitable
measures for the identification of the suitable areas and submit detailed proposals. The Court thereafter,
pursuant to its order dated December 4, 2006, directed the MoEF to give a final opportunity to the States
/ Union Territories to respond to the letter dated May 27, 2005 within four weeks failing which the
Court would implement the IBW Decision. The Court further directed that in all cases where
environmental clearances were granted for activities within the 10 kilometres zone such cases be
referred to the standing committee of the National Board for Wildlife. The Court further stated that the
letter dated May 27, 2005 is a departure from decision taken on January 21, 2002 and that this departure
is being considered in another case. The MoEF had subsequently filed an affidavit on the proposals
received by it from the various states. The MoEF has also released guidelines for declaration of eco-
sensitive zones around national parks and wildlife sanctuaries on February 9, 2011. The matter is
currently pending. For further details see Risk Factors The environmental clearances for our
proposed Dry Dock and ISRF project is subject to the final order in the matter of Goa Foundation v.
Union of India and amongst others for ISRF project, the prior clearance of the Standing Committee of
the National Board for Wildlife. on page 22.

Agreement dated November 24, 2016 amongst NSDL, our Company and the Registrar to the Issue; and
Agreement dated November 6, 2013 amongst CDSL, our Company and the Registrar to the Issue.

Since trading of the Equity Shares is in dematerialised form, the tradable lot is one Equity Share. Allotment in

Equity Shares.

Joint Holders

Subject to provisions contained in our Articles, where two or more persons are registered as the holders of the
Equity Shares, they shall be entitled to hold the same as joint tenants with benefits of survivorship.

Nomination facility to Bidders

In accordance with section 72 of the Companies Act, 2013 the sole Bidder, or the first Bidder along with other
joint Bidders, may nominate any one person in whom, in the event of the death of sole Bidder or in case of joint
Bidders, death of all the Bidders, as the case may be, the Equity Shares Allotted, if any, shall vest. A person, being
a nominee, entitled to the Equity Shares by reason of the death of the original holder(s), shall be entitled to the
same advantages to which he or she would be entitled if he or she were the registered holder of the Equity Share(s).
Where the nominee is a minor, the holder(s) may make a nomination to appoint, in the prescribed manner, any
person to become entitled to equity share(s) in the event of his or her death during the minority. A nomination
shall stand rescinded upon a sale/transfer/alienation of equity share(s) by the person nominating. A buyer will be
entitled to make a fresh nomination in the manner prescribed. Fresh nomination can be made only on the

409
Any person who becomes a nominee by virtue of the provisions of section 72 of the Companies Act, 2013 shall
upon the production of such evidence as may be required by the Board, elect either:

(a) to register himself or herself as the holder of the Equity Shares; or

Further, the Board may at any time give notice requiring any nominee to choose either to be registered himself or
herself or to transfer the Equity Shares, and if the notice is not complied with within a period of 90 days, the Board
may thereafter withhold payment of all dividends, bonuses or other moneys payable in respect of the Equity
Shares, until the requirements of the notice have been complied with.

Since the Allotment will be made only in dematerialized mode there is no need to make a separate nomination
with our Company. Nominations registered with respective depository participant of the Bidders would prevail.
If the investor wants to change the nomination, they are requested to inform their respective depository participant.

Withdrawal of the Issue

Our Company and the Selling Shareholder, in consultation with the BRLMs, reserve the right not to proceed with

with the Issue. The Registrar to the Issue, shall notify the SCSBs to unblock the bank accounts of the ASBA
Bidders within one Working Day from the date of receipt of such notification. Our Company shall also inform the

the Stock Exchanges, which our Company shall apply for after Allotment and within six Working Days from the
Bid/ Issue Closing Date or such other period as may be prescribed, and (ii) the final RoC approval of the

(a) Apart from mentioning the revised options in the Revision Form, the Bidder/Applicant must also
mention the details of all the bid options given in his or her Bid cum Application Form or earlier
Revision Form. For example, if a Bidder/Applicant has Bid for three options in the Bid cum
Application Form and such Bidder/Applicant is changing only one of the options in the Revision

revised, in the Revision Form. The Designated Intermediaries may not accept incomplete or

Bidders/Applicants should ensure that the Bid Amount, subsequent to revision, does not exceed
`200,000. In case the Bid Amount exceeds `200,000 due to revision of the Bid or for any other
reason, the Bid may be considered, subject to eligibility, for allocation under the Non-Institutional
Category, not being eligible for Discount (if applicable) and such Bid may be rejected if it is at the
Cut-off Price. The Cut-off Price option is given only to the RIBs, Employees and Retail Individual
Shareholders indicating their agreement to Bid for and purchase the Equity Shares at the Issue Price
as determined at the end of the Book Building Process.

(d) In case the total amount (i.e., original Bid Amount plus additional payment) exceeds `200,000, the
Bid will be considered for allocation under the Non-Institutional Category in terms of the
RHP/Prospectus. If, however, the RIB does not either revise the Bid or make additional payment
and the Issue Price is higher than the cap of the Price Band prior to revision, the number of Equity
Shares Bid, where possible. shall be adjusted downwards for the purpose of allocation, such that no
additional payment would be required from the RIB and the RIB is deemed to have approved such
revised Bid at Cut-off Price.

(e) In case of a downward revision in the Price Band, RIBs and Bids by Employees under the
Reservation Portion, who have bid at the Cut-off Price could either revise their Bid or the excess
amount paid at the time of Bidding may be unblocked after the allotment is finalised.

4.2.3 FIELD 6: PAYMENT DETAILS

(a) All Bidders/Applicants are required to authorise that the full Bid Amount (less Discount (if
applicable) is blocked. In case of Bidders/Applicants specifying more than one Bid Option in the
Bid cum Application Form, the total Bid Amount may be calculated for the highest of three options
at net price, i.e. Bid price less discount offered, if any.

(b) Bidder/Applicants may issue instructions to block the revised amount based on cap of the revised
Price Band (adjusted for the Discount (if applicable) in the ASBA Account, to the same Designated
Intermediary through whom such Bidder/Applicant had placed the original Bid to enable the relevant
SCSB to block the additional Bid Amount, if any.

(c) In case the total amount (i.e., original Bid Amount less discount (if applicable) plus additional
payment) exceeds `200,000, the Bid may be considered for allocation under the Non-Institutional
Category in terms of the RHP/Prospectus. If, however, the Bidder/Applicant does not either revise
the Bid or make additional payment and the Issue Price is higher than the cap of the Price Band prior

442
 to revision, the number of Equity Shares Bid for, where possible, may be adjusted downwards for
the purpose of Allotment, such that additional amount is required blocked and the Bidder/Applicant
is deemed to have approved such revised Bid at the Cut-off Price.

(d) In case of a downward revision in the Price Band, RIBs, Employees and Retail Individual
Shareholders, who have bid at the Cut-off Price, could either revise their Bid or the excess amount
blocked at the time of Bidding may be unblocked after the finalisation of basis of allotment.

Certain details pertaining to the percentage of Issue size available for allocation to each category is
disclosed overleaf of the Bid cum Application Form and in the RHP/Prospectus. For details in
relation to allocation, the Bidder/Applicant may refer to the RHP/Prospectus.

(b) Under-subscription in any category (except QIB Portion) is allowed to be met with spill-over from

(d) Illustration of the Book Building and Price Discovery Process

Bidders should note that this example is solely for illustrative purposes and is not specific to the
Issue; it also excludes Bidding by Anchor Investors.

Bidders can bid at any price within the price band. For instance, assume a price band of `20 to `24
per share, issue size of 3,000 equity shares and receipt of five bids from bidders, details of which are
shown in the table below. The illustrative book given below shows the demand for the equity shares
of the issuer company at various prices and is collated from bids received from various investors.

Bid Quantity Bid Price (`) Cumulative Quantity Subscription

500 24 500 16.70%
1,000 23 1,500 50.00%
1,500 22 3,000 100.00%
2,000 21 5,000 166.70%
2,500 20 7,500 250.00%

The price discovery is a function of demand at various prices. The highest price at which the issuer
is able to issue the desired number of equity shares is the price at which the book cuts off, i.e., `22.00
in the above example. The issuer, in consultation with the book running lead managers, will finalise
the issue price at or below such cut-off price, i.e., at or below `22.00. All bids at or above this issue
price and cut-off bids are valid bids and are considered for allocation in the respective categories.

448
 (e) Alternate Method of Book Building

In case of FPOs, Issuers may opt for an alternate method of Book Building in which only the Floor
Price is specified for the purposes of Bidding (Alternate Book Building Process).

The Issuer may specify the Floor Price in the RHP or advertise the Floor Price at least one Working
Day prior to the Bid/ Issue Opening Date. QIBs may Bid at a price higher than the Floor Price and
the Allotment to the QIBs is made on a price priority basis. The Bidder with the highest Bid Amount
is allotted the number of Equity Shares Bid for and then the second highest Bidder is Allotted Equity
Shares and this process continues until all the Equity Shares have been allotted. RIBs, NIBs and
Employees are Allotted Equity Shares at the Floor Price and Allotment to these categories of Bidders
is made proportionately. If the number of Equity Shares Bid for at a price is more than available
quantity then the Allotment may be done on a proportionate basis. Further, the Issuer may place a
cap either in terms of number of specified securities or percentage of issued capital of the Issuer that
may be Allotted to a single Bidder, decide whether a Bidder be allowed to revise the bid upwards or
downwards in terms of price and/or quantity and also decide whether a Bidder be allowed single or
multiple bids.

SECTION 6: ISSUE PROCEDURE IN FIXED PRICE ISSUE

Applicants may note that there is no Bid cum Application Form in a Fixed Price Issue. As the Issue Price is
mentioned in the Fixed Price Issue therefore on filing of the Prospectus with the RoC, the Application so submitted
is considered as the application form.

Applicants may only use the specified Application Form for the purpose of making an Application in terms of the
Prospectus which may be submitted through the Designated Intermediary.

Applicants may submit an Application Form either in physical form to the any of the Designated Intermediaries
or in the electronic form to the SCSB or the Designated Branches of the SCSBs authorising blocking of funds that
are available in the bank account specified in the Application Form only (ASBA Account). The Application
Form is also made available on the websites of the Stock Exchanges at least one day prior to the Bid/ Issue Opening
Date.

In a fixed price Issue, allocation in the net Issue to the public category is made as follows: minimum 50% to Retail
Individual Bidders; and remaining to (i) individual investors other than Retail Individual Bidders; and (ii) other
Applicants including corporate bodies or institutions, irrespective of the number of specified securities applied
for. The unsubscribed portion in either of the categories specified above may be allocated to the Applicants in the
other category.

For details of instructions in relation to the Application Form, Bidders/Applicants may refer to the relevant section
of the GID.

SECTION 7: ALLOTMENT PROCEDURE AND BASIS OF ALLOTMENT

The Allotment of Equity Shares to Bidders/Applicants other than Retail Individual Bidders and Anchor Investors
may be on proportionate basis. For Basis of Allotment to Anchor Investors, Bidders/Applicants may refer to
RHP/Prospectus. No Retail Individual Bidder will be Allotted less than the minimum Bid Lot subject to
availability of shares in Retail Individual Bidder Category and the remaining available shares, if any will be
Allotted on a proportionate basis. The Issuer is required to receive a minimum subscription of 90% of the Net
Issue (excluding any Offer for Sale of specified securities). However, in case the Issue is in the nature of Offer
for Sale only, then minimum subscription may not be applicable.

7.1 ALLOTMENT TO RIBs

Bids received from the RIBs at or above the Issue Price may be grouped together to determine the total
demand under this category. If the aggregate demand in this category is less than or equal to the Retail
Category at or above the Issue Price, full Allotment may be made to the RIBs to the extent of the valid
Bids. If the aggregate demand in this category is greater than the allocation to in the Retail Category at
or above the Issue Price, then the maximum number of RIBs who can be Allotted the minimum Bid Lot
will be computed by dividing the total number of Equity Shares available for Allotment to RIBs by the

449
 minimum Bid Lot (Maximum RIB Allottees). The Allotment to the RIBs will then be made in the
following manner:

(a) In the event the number of RIBs who have submitted valid Bids in the Issue is equal to or less than
Maximum RIB Allottees, (i) all such RIBs shall be Allotted the minimum Bid Lot; and (ii) the
balance available Equity Shares, if any, remaining in the Retail Category shall be Allotted on a
proportionate basis to the RIBs who have received Allotment as per (i) above for the balance demand
of the Equity Shares Bid by them (i.e. who have Bid for more than the minimum Bid Lot).

(b) In the event the number of RIBs who have submitted valid Bids in the Issue is more than Maximum
RIB Allottees, the RIBs (in that category) who will then be Allotted minimum Bid Lot shall be
determined on the basis of draw of lots.

7.2 ALLOTMENT TO NIBS

Bids received from NIBs at or above the Issue Price may be grouped together to determine the total
demand under this category. The Allotment to all successful NIBs may be made at or above the Issue
Price. If the aggregate demand in this category is less than or equal to the Non-Institutional Category at
or above the Issue Price, full Allotment may be made to NIBs to the extent of their demand. In case the
aggregate demand in this category is greater than the Non-Institutional Category at or above the Issue
Price, Allotment may be made on a proportionate basis up to a minimum of the Non-Institutional
Category.

7.3 ALLOTMENT TO QIBs

For the Basis of Allotment to Anchor Investors, Bidders/Applicants may refer to the SEBI ICDR
Regulations or RHP/Prospectus. Bids received from QIBs Bidding in the QIB Category (net of Anchor

(a) In the first instance allocation to Mutual Funds for up to 5% of the QIB Category may be determined
as follows: (i) In the event that Bids by Mutual Fund exceeds 5% of the QIB Category, allocation to
Mutual Funds may be done on a proportionate basis for up to 5% of the QIB Category; (ii) In the
event that the aggregate demand from Mutual Funds is less than 5% of the QIB Category then all
Mutual Funds may get full Allotment to the extent of valid Bids received above the Issue Price; and
(iii) Equity Shares remaining unsubscribed, if any and not allocated to Mutual Funds may be
available for Allotment to all QIBs as set out at paragraph 7.4(b) below;

(b) In the second instance, Allotment to all QIBs may be determined as follows: (i) In the event of
oversubscription in the QIB Category, all QIBs who have submitted Bids above the Issue Price may
be Allotted Equity Shares on a proportionate basis for up to 95% of the QIB Category; (ii) Mutual
Funds, who have received allocation as per (a) above, for less than the number of Equity Shares Bid
for by them, are eligible to receive Equity Shares on a proportionate basis along with other QIBs;
and (iii) Under-subscription below 5% of the QIB Category, if any, from Mutual Funds, may be
included for allocation to the remaining QIBs on a proportionate basis.

7.4 ALLOTMENT TO ANCHOR INVESTOR (IF APPLICABLE)

inverse of the over-subscription ratio;

(c) The number of Equity Shares to be Allotted to the successful Bidders may be arrived at on a
proportionate basis, which is total number of Equity Shares applied for by each Bidder in that
category multiplied by the inverse of the over-subscription ratio;

(d) In all Bids where the proportionate Allotment is less than the minimum Bid Lot decided per Bidder,
the Allotment may be made as follows: the successful Bidders out of the total Bidders for a category
may be determined by a draw of lots in a manner such that the total number of Equity Shares Allotted
in that category is equal to the number of Equity Shares calculated in accordance with (b) above;
and each successful Bidder may be Allotted a minimum of such Equity Shares equal to the minimum
Bid Lot finalised by the Issuer;

(e) If the proportionate Allotment to a Bidder is a number that is more than the minimum Bid lot but is
not a multiple of one (which is the marketable lot), the decimal may be rounded off to the higher
whole number if that decimal is 0.5 or higher. If that number is lower than 0.5 it may be rounded off
to the lower whole number. Allotment to all Bidders in such categories may be arrived at after such
rounding off; and

(f) If the Equity Shares allocated on a proportionate basis to any category are more than the Equity
Shares Allotted to the Bidders in that category, the remaining Equity Shares available for Allotment

451
 may be first adjusted against any other category, where the Allotted Equity Shares are not sufficient
for proportionate Allotment to the successful Bidders in that category. The balance Equity Shares,
if any, remaining after such adjustment may be added to the category comprising Bidders applying
for minimum number of Equity Shares.

 RESTRICTIONS ON FOREIGN OWNERSHIP OF INDIAN SECURITIES
Foreign investment in Indian securities is regulated through the Industrial Policy, 1991 of the Government of India
and FEMA and the circulars and notifications issued thereunder. Unless specifically restricted, foreign investment
is freely permitted in all sectors of the Indian economy up to any extent and without any prior approvals, but the
foreign investor is required to follow certain prescribed procedures for making such investment.

The Consolidated FDI Policy consolidates and supersedes all previous press notes, press releases and clarifications
on FDI issued by the DIPP that were in force and effect prior to June 7, 2016. The Government proposes to update
the consolidated circular on FDI Policy once every year and therefore, Consolidated FDI Policy will be valid until
the DIPP issues an updated circular. Subject to the provisions of the Consolidated FDI Policy, FDI is allowed
under the automatic route for companies engaged in the manufacturing sector.

The transfer of shares between an Indian resident and a non-resident does not require the prior approval of the
concerned Ministry / Department of Government of India or the RBI, provided that (i) the activities of the investee
company are under the automatic route under the Consolidated FDI Policy and transfer does not attract the
provisions of the Takeovers Regulations; (ii) the non-resident shareholding is within the sectoral limits under the
FDI policy; and (iii) the pricing is in accordance with the guidelines prescribed by the SEBI/RBI.

As per existing regulations, OCBs cannot participate in the Issue.

The Equity Shares have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws in
the United States and may not be offered or sold within the United States, except pursuant to an exemption from,
or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities
laws. Accordingly, the Equity Shares are being offered and sold (i) in the United States only to persons reasonably
believed to be qualified institutional buyers (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act and referred to
in this Red Herring Prospectus as U.S. QIBs, for the avoidance of doubt, the term U.S. QIBs does not refer to a
category of institutional investor defined under applicable Indian regulations and referred to in the Draft Red
Herring Prospectus as QIBs) pursuant to Rule 144A or another available exemption from the registration
requirements of the Securities Act, and (ii) outside the United States only in offshore transactions in reliance on
Regulation S under the Securities Act and pursuant to the applicable laws of the jurisdiction where those offers
